great use of recycled materials. I like the design and “naturalness” of this one. Is your daughter a southpaw too? – mine has me looking at the world in whole new way (one not neccessarily engineered for her… but I’m noticing more left handed people around me lately… so this would be perfect for several people I know.

Thanks for the nice comments.
Scott actually my son is a lefty and my daughter is right handed. I set the desk up for her facing left with her arm supported by the desk for using a computer mouse. The desk is small at 2’x4’ so the monitor sits right over the drawers. Maybe she will get a flat monitor for xmas and be able to sit straight at the desk.

She did and still loves the desk Bill and Max. We were finally offered high speed Internet where we live and I got a wireless router so she is glued to the desk now surfing the web.

I do enjoy working with pallet wood. You never know what find of natural design you are going to end up with until you cut it.
