Been working on this for quite awhile now as I only get about 2 days a month to work on it. I've mentioned it here a few times so it's probably about time I show some progress. I still have quite a bit to finish. I need to make 5 drawers yet, install the keyboard trays, install trim to cover up the plywood edge, sand everything, then give it a few coats of polyurethane.

Dimensions:

The left side runs 6 feet, the right side is 6 feet 6 inches plus the 2 feet where they overlap. This should fit nicely in my den.

Anyway, here's my progress so far. Pics taken with my iPhone so I apologize on the quality.

The far left top spot will house my server. That's why there will only be 5 drawers

I will update as I progress. I'm hoping next weekend to build out the rest and at least get it all sanded.

An actual update! I've finished the build and sanded this weekend. Also applied stain. Here's a few shots:

Now just need to apply a few coats of polyurethane and it will be ready to go.

If only I had the time...in my last pic, see that stack of white boxes? That is siding for my house/garage. Really not looking forward to that project.
