I wanted to build a desk for my boyfriend who just started Med School. He wanted something big enough for him to really spread out and this desktop fits the bill at 5ftx2ft. I built it using my miter and table saws, Kreg jig, drill and sander! I love how the desk turned out with a stained top and painted base.
Plans came from Rogue Engineer.

  • How very thoughtful of you! That desk will be so helpful for your boyfriend! How did you come up with the design for the base? Looks great!
