way to go!
I recently got rid of my old, monster 50 inch projection TV. it still worked great, but had some issues, and its a HUGE, heavy monster, and there are tons and tons of tiny flat screens out there. I donated it to the Learning center downtown. They take care of underpriviledged children, and some paying customers whos parents have no place else to take them. Got a nice tax write off, and the kids can now watch a huge TV to see their learning videos.
I love that you are being creative. It will make a nice bar for ya. Please include pics of your project. Before and after shots are a good thing!
