Tony drew the design on Solidworks shown in Pictures #1 and #2 and wrote the explanation for all the pictures in an email he sent to one of my interested brothers....so, I just grabbed the pictures and explanation......and here they are.
This is just to show how good he is....something he won't do!! And....Terry, it is still your turn to be "roasted" on the blog, but it may have to wait until after Christmas and when we are in Arizona.
#1 is the front of the desk showing proposed rear PC access to cables etc and Printer/Scanner access. 
#2 is the working side showing PC access to drives and drawers (haven't yet decided on handles). Visible items are red oak, invisible are birch plywood.
#3 is one pedestal carcass 
#4 is the other pedastal with one of the five drawers mounted.
All the cut pieces of wood you see on the right are dough dollys in the making. Dennis needs all these for the pizza stores. Tony is waiting for the casters to be delivered to finish them.
Wow what a fantastic bit of furniture it looks brilliant - certainly puts MFI to shame!!! Guess you'll have to build another one for Sharon it would be a shame not to keep the desks alike - you are very clever Tony - lots of love JJ x
ReplyDeleteHave to admit that really looks good. Well done bro.Don't forget to polish it. One thing I didn't see was air holes. PC's get quite warm and start acting funny when they overheat. Just a thought. Couple of 6" hole on the top should do it.
