Walnut computer desk

WOW, I love it! Especially how easily it comes apart for transport (or looks easy anyway!). How much walnut do you think you used?

Looks like a really functional design, and beautifully executed! Thanks for sharing it.

GGGGGG wize this is huge alright, A great design and beautiful finished product ,really well done.

New here but two questions. First, how many board feet of wood did you use and second, what kind of finish did you use?
Magnificent work.

I ended up using around 130 bdft of walnut. I also used hard maple for the drawer carcasses (it’s really cheap in my area). It’s a good thing the desk disassembles because it weighs a ton.

I mixed a wiping varnish using equal parts boiled linseed oil, polyurethane and mineral spirits – about 4 coats were applied. The desk top has an additional 10 coats of thinned polyurethane.

I love the removing panel features, very cool indeed!

I really like the design. Looks great, thanks for posting.

This is awesome. You should develop a pattern for it, if others would like to attempt this grand piece.
