    Default Inspiration requested

    Good morning all, I have a plan for a roll top desk (see link) that I am going to make. I have a move east at the end of the year so I am not sure if I will start it now or wait until I get over there, dont want to start any big projects just yet but then I really want to make this desk. What wood(s) would you use to make this project. For anyone else who wants to make it, I have already made all the conversions from imperial to metric so pm me and I will email the spreadsheet.

    Corbs, I thought I was missing something, but after stuffing about on the link (as above) I discovered.... the only roll top desk that don't have a rolling top!

    Apart from this very curious ommission, the desk looks great. Good luck
