I’m probably over $60 if you add in the screws and stain and I had to buy the pocket screw gizmo.
All that being said I fucked up! Got TV in today and the feet are like a fucking INCH too deep and hang off the top! I also didn’t take into account the wheels added height so the TV is fairly high up now, not horrible but could be a few inches lower. Lastly I didn’t even think about my center channel speaker. In FL I have the TV mounted on the wall so the speaker just sat on the console and was below the tv. In this case 1 there was no room for it and 2 even if there was would block a good chunk of screen.
So I have begun work on version 2.0. I will use this one for the “concession” stand area and I’m making a deeper, shorter version and will have to come up with some kind of shelf or something in the front for the center channel.

You can go to Amazon and look for something like this (maybe you need something bigger for bigger TV).

I have one in Asheville to fit TV on tabletop and make room for center speaker.
Edit: Found a mediocre / not great pic.
