http://forum.pianoworld.com/ubbthreads.php/topics/2205086/Project:_building_a_grand_shap.html Wow!!! Just wow! I’m so impressed. I wish I had such good skills with wood and proper machinery.

Ikea products all use real wood ... in the form of sawdust, 100% derived from wood ... bound by resins to give that charming look of cheapness. Except for the ones with paper honeycomb structures inside. But then again "wood is made of paper" as they say on YouTube on the Hydraulic Press Channel, so wood = paper and it's all the same.  Ah, yes. And I prefer the "classic" design. And it might not be too hard to make that round corner with a large hole saw. (Not that I'm DIY...)
