The Desk Project

 Hi Everyone,

Well finished the desk project. It was cold here last week so I decided to just go ahead and finish it and here it is:


Well here's Rhubarb the cat who had absolutely nothing to do with this...

And here is the finished table. This wasn't a terribly difficult build. The legs are attached to a simple frame underneath the top at 85 degrees instead of 90 degrees. There are stretchers between the legs to stabilize the structure.  It's built out of pine and it was finished with General Finishes gel stain in prairie wheat. I topped that off with several coats of polyurethane, with sanding between coats. It has a nice smooth finish. 
The total price of materials came to about $120.00. 

Ok, it's still too cold to turn on the equipment so no wood turning this week. I'm occupying myself by making an archery rack for my youngest son. Keep your fingers crossed that spring time finally gets here.

Stay tuned,
VW
