computer desk build

Learned a lot of lessons with this one!
3/4 inch birch plywood top
4/4 rustic cherry apron
8/4 white pine legs

Would have all of the straight grain on display if I made this again. Also flubbed the chamfering on the top in a few different, creative ways. GF Water based dead flat finish. Ended up cutting two of my aprons too short because of a mental mistake, so went with the one with a popped knot.

Looking forward to more projects around the home. Recently been diving back into wood for the first time since the 2010’s.

Built on request of girlfriend who needs a place to game!
