This is the first project that I built after returning to woodworking. It is made of 3/4" Melamine. I used the Kreg pockethole system to assemble the entire desk. this desk is in my daughters homeoffice. she found it on Ikea's website with a $200 price tag. I built it for less than $60.

I am sitting at home in Scotland today waiting for delivery of a new DeWalt 733 planer/thicknesser and passing some time on my computer. Just came across your wall desk. What a great idea Chris, functional and good looking to.
