These plans are derived from Michael Dunbar is Colonial Cupboard hand tool project in Fine Woodworking Number 151, October 2001, pages 64-71. The project is scaled up slightly from his plans to accommodate three rows of DVD is and a single row of CD is. The case is a dovetailed box with a mortise and tenon face frame and door. Shelves are set into dados in the sides and the back is formed by ship-lapped boards.

This was my first endeavor into making a piece of furniture. There was a lot more to it than I first thought. I copied from existing pieces of furniture that we have so that it would match.

This easy-to-build media tower features a door that can be hinged on either side and six shelves. Here are the free woodworking plans.

The cutting diagrams and materials list are available to download in this Online Extra from Woodsmith Magazine.

This cabinet has refined style despite its inexpensive materials. The textured look is made with dark walnut stain over maple.
