How to build double dog crate TV stand?

GingerNinja

Anyone aware of any plans available or bunnings projects to create a double dog crate tv stand similar to the below? 

Wanting it to be about 1800-2200 length

600mm deep.

It;s ambitious but the ones for sale range at $1000 plus so doing my own is the plan (maybe not immediately but sometime)  Needs 2 dog crates. plus some sort of storage for PS4 etc and some other stuff. and will have our tv and some plants on top.

I've had a look online and most plans advise pocket holes (which I'd prefer to avoid)

Any ideas, or similar stuff, or even some guidance would be good

Thanks in advance.

I can't say that I've seen any plans @GingerNinja. I do note that it's quite similar in style to this How to build a kids craft table with storage. You could potentially work on that guide and then make adjustments to it to suit your needs. Unfortunately, it also uses pocket holes (which are quite easy to do once you have a Kreg jig), but you could substitute them for a butt joint and screwing through the face of one panel into the other.

Also, you could take some inspiration from @LePallet and their Dog crate buffet cabinet with a sliding door. No plans, but if you spend some time, you could work out what's needed.

Just remember that if you've found plans, there's normally no reason why you have to use pocket holes; they just prevent holes in face panels. If you are painting, you can just fill those holes.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
