Well here is the computer desk I have been building ready to install tomorrow night. I hate Conti board. I did enjoy the challenge really. http://img256.imageshack.us/img256/9114/computerdesk2xz.jpg

Very nice desk. When you are away from your shed at your desk you will be able to keep in touch with reality. Well done.

I hate Conti board.

What is Conti board, the name doesn't gel here in Australia.

I wondered where you had gone Barry? Are you still singing? :-) Conti board is chipboard faced with melamine plastic, I am not sure what it is called over there in Oz but I am sure it is there. I still hate the stuff and much rather work in wood.

When people ask me if I can sing I say "I can't sing, I'm the wrong colour, I've got no money and the other Barry White has gone but I'm still here."

I suppose over there Conti Board is a brand name over here we just call it melamine, I don't know who invented it, could have been Laminex Industries here.

Actually I just Googled this on Melamine. http://www.mlaust.com/HistoryofPlastics.shtml#MELAMINES

I was just having a read of this website that I just googled and found it very interesting on the history of plastics that was actually put together by an Australian.
