In my attempts to get out of the post "COLLEGE" phase-turned "IKEA" phase and now ready to graduate to the "HAND PICKED" phase of furniture ownership, I have decided that I need a sideboard. I am only using the term sideboard to a) sound like I know what the fuck a sideboard is and b) use it in a sentence because I just found out what it meant 5 minutes ago.

A sideboard is a table that I guess has shelves but isn't big like a coffee table or a bookcase. Usually it's meant for dining rooms to hold crap in it for display purposes.

That being said, I simply need a table to hold my tv. That's all. No big whup right? Wrong.

I found this beauty last month at crate and barrel but was agast (agast I tell you!) at the price. $330 bucks for 5 pieces of wood. No thanks.

Sooo, I just purchased some metal feet from the int0rwebs and plan to build the table over xmas break. Now I just need a table saw.

And the knowledge of how to actually build a table in the first place. Surely, this will end on a positive note. Surely. I mean, I built a speaker box earlier this year with relatively no issues whatsoever. Good thing the emergency room is on speed dial in the krew household.
