Sizing up your 50 inch tv stand without making a mess of it
Look, I spend most of my life in a workshop covered in sawdust, so I am not here to give you a glossy sales pitch. If you want something that looks like it came out of a futuristic spaceship, you are in the wrong place. I work with oak, and oak is stubborn, heavy, and honest. If you have just spent a week’s wages on a new screen, don’t be a tight-arse when it comes to what it sits on. A 50 inch tv stand needs to do its job, which is holding a massive weight without bowing in the middle like a cheap shelf.
