    Default Enginner needing advice on how to build a home desk

    Hi all,

    I'm a senior age structural engineer and about to have a large home desk built by a joiner.
    Love woodwork and joinery and would be my trade if not an engineer.

    Will be posting asking for guidance on the desk.

    G'Day & Welcome to a top forum MrShuffles,
    You'll find a heap of helpful & knowledgeable blokes & ladies on the forum and for most very willing to assist.
    Make sure you show off your handiwork as everyone loves a photo, especially WIP photos with build notes.
