After living in my home for 5 years, I finally got tired of staring at the empty space above my TV. Since this piece was going to be placed above my television, I thought I’d make a sound wave; it seemed appropriate. Again, this was made from reclaimed fence wood. There is no stain added. Instead I used Tung Oil to bring out the natural wood finish and to provide protection. It measures 6 feet by 4 feet and is raised off the wall about 7 inches.

After I mounted it on the wall, I realized I need a bigger TV! This piece dwarfs my 55 inch television! I included a LED strip around the back to provide accent lighting. This is why there is a strip of wood going behind the TV to conceal the power cable.

It’s hard to see from the pictures, but the surface is super smooth!

Here’s a shot before the Tung Oil:

Here is a piece inspired by art on the set of the show The Talking Dead on AMC. It took an enormously long time to cut and sand each square, but I really like the results! It measures 34″ square , is 4″ at its highest point and weighs 41 pounds.

Here are a couple of close ups. I like the look of the end grain.

And some pictures during construction…
