This is not shameless self-promotion. This is what happens when no one sends me a project to post by Thursday — I post a project of my own! If you’ve been at the space over the last week or two, you’ve seen this taking shape:
It’s a desk I’m making using reclaimed pine boards. They started life as my parents’ fence, looking like this:
A few passes through the auto planer, and voila! A finished desk. Well, almost finished. I’ve got a couple more rounds of sanding to do, then I’ll stain it and install. The legs in the picture above are just saw horses; it’ll be mounted on black steel pipe with flanges for feet.
