A Wooden Beast Desk! :)

copenhagen69 · Mar 10, 2010

First off I know some may be saying ... a desk? Yes a desk! I will need to mod a desk for my case ... so I figured the cases, modding section would be perfect for it

This will complete my tech station area of the lab

As some of you may know, I have built a huge tech station HERE. So I was looking around trying to find something to hold the massive weight. I found a desk for $150ish but it still did not have everything I was looking for.

Soooooo I said screw it, I'm going to Lowes! With a $150ish budget I am going to build a desk for A Wooden Beast

Once again do not be jealous of my drawn out desk

Stay tuned for more updates.

On a side note:
The Wooden Beast paint is drying at the moment and should be 100% dried and ready to test stuff out tomorrow. However, I will update it and everything else in its own thread when I know for sure...

Aside from the use of more budget minded materials, you are one hell of a carpenter/tile layer. Nice work on the bench!

lol, plus one for use of pt, can take the desk outside, lol.

the tiles themselves weighed i think it was like 35 pounds in our box...
