Summary: Really one entertainment center you can make in 24 sizes
Review: A basic center/2 sides cabinet is the only model covered in this book. The rest is exploded orthographic CAD drawings and plywood cutting plans for several different size combinations. This book would be useful for novices who want to build this particular cabinet, but even for them it does not offer step by step instructions or photos. If you're looking for a variety in projects and styles, keep looking.

Summary: It's more than just 1 entertainment center in 24 sizes
Review: What he didn't elaborate on is that this is a book that goes into making the basic part of the entertainment center, which is all the guidence a novice woodworker with ANY bit of imagination and creativity needs. It has all the sizes to accomodate for the many variations that can be needed for a custom entertainment center. It goes into detail on adding mouldings(crown and decorative), and customizing it further, like giving you diminsions for CD's Videocasette Tapes, and so on. There is much more to this book, and is one of the better books on Entertainment Centers out there. And believe me I have looked through about 35+ in about a week-long period at bookstores flipping through pages finding what I think would be the best way to get a custom look with a conventional plan. If you are wanting to build your own Entertainment Center to house your gear, this is a good book to have. It also gives basic diminsions for audio components, and how to put in a swivel TV tray, which is helpful.
