it was about time to have a new desk but i haven't found one i liked so i decided to build my own desk.
went from this pc world desk which is in a mess im afraid.
to this...
total cost for the desk was £8.00
wood came from my uncle who's factory was shutting down so the wood was lying around and he cut it for me and delivered it as well.
the radiator cover mdf on the side was from another friend who done a job for someone and they asked him to get rid of a old radiator cover they didnt want and i had the front for my desk.
the desk is painted in dulux white paint from my shed which was just enough to give it 4 coats.
then i varnished the desk with gloss varnish and turned out very nice to be honest.
the little light's along the back are decking light's which i found in homebase for £9.93 and instead of 4 light's which the packet said there was 6 in there,box is a bit bashed and torn and all the light's were just sitting on top of it so once i found everything was there i went to the checkout and the women said"that will be £4.50 please" i quickly paid and left with a big smile.
ive just got some plastic edging to go on and it's all done.
not bad for under a £10
