This is my first larger furniture piece and definitely made lots of mistakes between design and execution.
It’s all cherry and designed so one end is a right angle and the top shelf if shallower to fit into the fireplace.
My main power tool is a track saw but I did have access to a wood shop for a day to mill some rougher boards. Otherwise I used hand tools to finish the rest.
I used dowels and track saw cut grooves/rabbets for most of the joinery.
It was a mistake to make it in two sections instead of just having the sides be one larger piece. I also went too aggressive with my new router. Should have made much smaller bevels.
