This is a baseball desk that I build to go with my baseball bed. I designed it to resemble a home plate, which works perfect of a corner desk. I used authentic Louisville Slugger bats for the 3 legs. The legs are attached with a lag bolt and at embedded T-nut. I have an apron style base with a drawer the lower section.

The finish is a white lacquer undercoater with an antiquing glaze. The corners are rubbed though for a warn look.

Here are some building pictures:

Here is another version that I built for Escobar that plays for the Angels:
Stained version of the Home Plate desk.

Cool looking desk. I watched some of the video, kind of hard to follow.

The video I posted on this project is just a live shot of my shop now. I didn’t have any recorded videos of this build.
