What is the wood you used? Looks like pretty stuff.
The size seems just about right.----The stand that is ,not your feet:D

Thanks, Dave!
I used solid walnut for everything except the top. The top is a recycled thick piece of MDF with walnut veneer I glued to it. The whole thing I'd guess weighs 30+ pounds, and when you knock knuckles on it carrying it around, it rings like a bell.

I don't have a protractor handy to give an approximate angle but when I did have a TV it was mounted pretty high in bedroom. It was only a 27". Having it a bit high never bothered me. A few friends commented about how high it was when they first saw it years ago but none that watched with me ever complained. A few said it was nice once having watched it.

That said, I had chairs and a couch that lean back a little bit so it was a relatively 'natural' viewing angle.

I finally got around to replacing the CRT with a modern 'set'. Luckily everything still works out on that walnut table I sweat so much on a couple years back :) .
