This is how my stand looked



I took it to a cabinet maker and he totally skinned it with out any holes drilled. All the maple is screwed together and the pieces on the corners hide all the counter sunk screws. It's very sturdy

i have my stand set back in a nook so i bought baseboard to match the house and attatched it to the bottom of the stand along the floor. For the panels i bought high strength velcrow. I set the front panels on the baseboard to take the weight of the panel and the velcrow is up top to keep the panel from falling off. quick, cheap and easy to take on and off and took all of 10 minutes.. now just to cut the panels
