Hey all,
I've been browsing the forums for a few weeks now, and finally decided to sign up.
I have also been planning and starting the build of a new computer desk since I've always needed one with heaps of space and plenty of features I wanted, That a 'off the shelf' desk couldn't offer me.
The desk is in 2 parts and will form an L shape to fit into a corner, The first part (to the right in the Sketchup pic) measures 2.2m X 0.7m. The left hand part measures 1.5m X 0.7m. The total height will be ~1.8m.
So without further ado, Here are some progress pics.
The legs and the 1.5m desk part.
Nice red colour, Will be a bit darker once oiled.
Borer holes in the legs, Kinda add character.
4 8mm dowels should be plenty strong!
The end grain of these legs is pure sex.
Routered the ends of the legs, Will get sanded later on.
Another update tomorrow!
Any questions, tips?
