ad on CL says its oak. that peace that the TV is sitting on stops at the vertical peace. Im thinking of cutting the vertical peace right where the 2 horizontal "above the cabinet and below the tv" and putting one solid peace all the way accross. here ill make a picture :]What is it made out of? Is it particle board / mdf or plywood? Also, the board the TV is sitting on, how is it attached? It looks like it doesn't go all the way to the left, but stops at the vertical board in the center.

I would send them an email and ask them what it is made of, if they don't know they can look at the back side and probably see. It also looks like it's 3/4" inch, but it's hard to tell, so I'd check that as well. How much are they asking for it?
ok, I'd guess it's oak laminate then, so you'll want to find out what kind of wood is beneath the laminate. If it was solid oak for free then that's just ridiculousasking for the low low price of .. free
I was thinking that he wanted to turn the entertainment center into a viv (akin to a plywood fish tank), not place a pre-made glass box inside of it.Steven, why would you need to seal the wood? If you properly seal all the glass there wouldn't be any moisture in contact with the wood.
