a new early 50s style case for a bpc?

Just an idea I had. Im an adequate woodworker, nothing special. I was thinking of building a dove tailed table top tv cabinet, tailored for one of bpc sets ive hanging around. Stain it a mahogany color and do a few coats of clear on top of it. Relocate the tuners to the side with some vintage knobs. Finding a round screen bezel and glass off a junked set, thats close to it and using a custom gasket.

It really doesnt seem all that hard to me. Heck, id even use an old color set for this. Id just use a cheap and well working bpc, so nothing good was used. I assume i could easily find the hardware here or on epay. Now I dont know if ill ever get around to this, but if the idea haunts me enough..

What do you guys think?
