6 / Sectional Entertainment Center
Since one size rarely fits all, this attractive entertainment center is designed as three separate units. You can build just one section, or all three — whatever you need for your TV and accessories. We even give you plans for adding optional glass doors.

Looking for a joinery method that’s fast, strong, and straightforward? Pocket holes just may be the answer. In this article, we’ll guide you through setting up and using a pocket hole jig and give you some clever tips for getting the best results.
Outdoor Project
22 / Tile-Top Table
Dimensional lumber and pocket hole construction allow you to build this project in a weekend. A ceramic tile that’s inset in the top of the table provides a durable surface with a dash of color.
