Good evening, I thought I'd share a fun project we are working on, a manual crank sit/stand desk complete with drawer bank.
Its made from 2 of my favorite woods, wormy maple and pine. Pine is incredible to work with because as you cut and shape it, the whole shop begins to smell like pine.
The 2 drawer bank features one of my favorite joints, the box (sometimes called finger) joint, for some fun detail.
The top is about 4.5 ft by just under 2.5 ft. It will have a second shelf, monitor stand and a power outlet built into a corner for easy charging and access. A quarter inch deep square or pan, about 60% of the total top, will be cut into the top so that glass can be inlaid into the wood to provide a flat surface and protect the wood top.
The side crank allows the top to be raised or lowered so it can be used from a sitting or standing position.
It will be a beautiful desk for working from home.
