New Desk

I built a desk today. Our other desk was just too big. It took up a lot of space and provided a large area to collect junk. The hope is that the new desk will not collect as much junk. Here are some pictures...



For those that care, I made it out of one 4x8 sheet of Blondwood plywood, one 2x4, and 16 1.5" wood screws. I put to use the skill saw, the compound miter saw, the router, and the drill. I cost me about $35 and three hours of m life. I plan to stain it, but I am not sure what color, yet.

Nice work, hombre.

Do you make house calls?

Hey, how has that iMac treated you?

I'm thinking about getting a used iMac for my wife, but I've had to have the hardware on my macbook repaired FOUR times in a year, so I'm hesitant.

I haven't had any problems with our iMac. It does everything we need it do without complaint.

When you are sitting at the desk thinking about how you did a good job, you can also FINISH THE 'BIRTH'STORY!!!!!
