I ran across this thread over on LOST and decided to build a shelf of my own.
I used 3/4" MDF for the main shelf part which is pretty darn heavy, and 1x2's for the edges. I coated it with some poly before carpeting. I got the carpet from wal-mart for like $9.
As you can see, I didnt add a back to it like the OP and others; instead I just mitered the two side pieces.
As an added bonus, I used velcro to throw two motion sensing LED lights under the shelf as you cant see anything under the shelf if it's dark out.
The only light used in these pics were from the KJ's interior and the motion sensing lights.
These are the lights I have.
Any questions, just ask!
