Title: A new room addition, and a question Post by: InvadErGII on October 18, 2012, 10:54:03 PM I picked up this TV stand today:
[img width=700 height=525]http://i.imgur.com/PdqoB.jpg[/img] It is totally sweet and stores my consoles really nicely. However, I think it is buckling a little bit in the middle from the weight of my TV. It may just be my eyes deceiving me, but I think I can kind of see it in the above picture. So, a few questions: 1. Am I crazy? Is this really buckling at all? 2. If it is, should I be worried about it caving in or something? It seems very structurally sound, which is why I'm surprised to see what I think I'm seeing.

Title: Re: A new room addition, and a question Post by: InvadErGII on October 18, 2012, 11:14:17 PM There is but it's pretty small and with the carpet I'm not even sure it's fully touching the ground. I do have something small I could use to prop that pillar up a bit more, though. Hmmm...

I was able to prop up the less-than-great support pillar and it's very, very level now. To celebrate, I took some more pictures. Here's the left side drawer...
