I know some of you are waiting on the workout bench, but shipping is super slow for none essentials right now. I just got the final material in the mail, so I am starting on the gym bench this coming week. If you enjoyed this video, let me know what budget build you would like to see next. ** Plans are now available for this Desk: gum.co/NMJnr **

I’m an essential employee and today was my first day off in 2 weeks, I would love to see a desk this style but with a more practical focus (like shelves and organizers) as I head to college in August. I think it would be awesome if you could do some builds based around dorms and small apartments for us college folks that still like building. I really appreciate your channel as I started watching at 16, having no tools whatsoever, and today I’m 18 with basic tools that can do most things I need done. I’m not a contractor or anything but with my confidence built up from your builds I have started to help frame a friends house to learn more structural techniques with wood. All of what I know is thanks to you for planting that seed in my brain that I should start working with my hands!

I just completed a clone of this desk. A clone, because it is not entirely the same. This was my second time building something out of wood. The first thing I build was a couple of garden raised beds. I had no prior experience working with wood or using tools. The desk came out nice. A couple of mistakes here and there but the satisfaction of building something was priceless. I only watched the video a couple of times and did not purchase the plan until today. Without the tools, this is definitely a $50 dollar desk. Thank you DYI Creators for this tutorial video.

[@coffienathanielkwame8763]

Hi Glen! What a great room desk for my teenage boy. I am a beginner to now intermediate DIY woodworking hobbyist. I decided to make this table as a challenge for my self. I made it slightly bigger then yours mainly in depth. I also added a shelf to it so my son can hide all his mess. My older tennage boys needs lots of room for his school work. If took my 3 weeks to complete. Worked on it for a few hours a week. I am so happy with the final result. My boy Damen is so happy with it. I was able to give his much smaller older desk to my youngest daughter which worked out perfect for her room. I will try to attach a few pictures of the journey and final product. Hope you can approve and give me a big thumbs up. I have been foloowing you for a few years now but this is my first post on your channel. Thanks so much for helping us DIY's out!

Hey glenn! I actually built this desk and i love it! I only made it 4 ft long since that would be optimal for my room. Thanks so much 😎

[@djjinerson]

Loved doing this build and putting my own twist on it by giving the front edge a 45 degree bevel and a light round over on the top. I also cut a fading 45 degree bevel on the front of the waterfall tapering wide to thin starting at the top. I also cut a slight angle on the waterfall leg, not to much where id lose stability but enough to give it a modern look. I kept the legs the same although i didn't do the angled 2x4 cuts in it, and left it simple. I also left it bare and just did several coats of Danish oil on that leg and the stretcher. I still look at this thing amazed i built it, and I thank you for giving me the confidence to give it a shot. I got lucky on the jointing as I don't have a jointer but used a large level to reference square on my jobsite table saw. I could of built this based on your video alone, but I spent the 5 buck because I love the work you do, and the knowledge you impart to others, and will purchase other plans soon. I have to constantly be building something, or I don't feel alive (not really but its become an obsession)

Ray P you bet! Did you try it? It’s how it’s taught in the Festool farmtable course. No jointer needed. I tend to shave a bit off each, clamp together then cut as described. Then you can cross cut to final length and square it up. Easy peasy.

[@DIYCreators]

It's a good tip, I've done this before it works. With 1.5in lumber like this, it will not work with a typical circular. A Standard 7-1/4 circular saw cuts 2.5in depth, and two of these boards is 3in thick. That said you will not cut through both boards.
