This past couple of weeks I have been getting lumber dressed to make a new desk, all out of pine. It is an open style desk with one drawer and a place for the old computer tower, which I still use once in a while. The top is a breadboard style, 1 inch think, it turned out great. I have a cut out in the back of the top for wires and a platform for the monitor. I will be putting a plastic holder under the back side to hold the loose wires with a bit of foam to hold them in place. The legs and supports for the drawer and tower are held in place by dovetails. I just slide them in and out for easy assembly. A low edge on the back so I don't accidently pushing anything off. Once I get it finished with clear poly the pine will be nice and light for the office. Shortly I'll be making a new filling cabinet with drawers for odds and ends, as well a for paper for the printer. Here is the desk prior to the finish.

Just another angel. |

A place for the computer and a large drawer. |

You can see the dovetails to hold the legs in place. |

Easily disassembled to move where needed. |
