I've done my best to provide as clear instructions and drawings as I can. Caveat maker: I have no in-progress photos of this project as I made it 5 years ago.
#Wraparound desk plus#
This project took an morning for the woodwork, plus the rest of the weekend for staining and poly coats. In my book, elegance of design is something you enjoy long after you've forgotten the monetary cost. 6' on a side was a good size not just aesthetically, but because with judicious cutting I could cut all the structural pieces out of one piece of good, double-sided plywood. I like corner desks as a rule, so I drew up a design with 6' legs from a corner, with a couple of curves. 4) Movable - I 've moved too many times to set myself up with a cumbersome desk. My specifications were, in order of importance: 1) Elegant - I liked desks that wrapped around you 2) Easy to Make - Minimize tools and time 3) Cheap - Ideally made out of one piece of plywood. It was ugly, tended to slide by itself, I hit my hip on the corners occasionally, and I heard disconcerting cracks and creaks when I put my 20" CRT in the middle where I wanted it. I already had one filing cabinet about 29 inches tall, so I bought another the same height and tried the desk out. When I was a kid my mother made a desk out of an interior door and two filing cabinets.
