    Grommet Hole Query

    Hi all, Other than my OCD making this bother me, is this ok? My father kindly drilled a hole for a grommet on my desk, but didn't check for the desk support below. The issue is, if we had given space for the desk support it may have been too far forward on the desk. We had to use silicone to...

    Making a corner desk with limited skills

    Since I started a new job, my office desk isn't cutting it any more - not enough accessible desk and monitor space. So I'm looking to build a 190cm x 160cm x 80 / 60cm corner desk to fit a space in my study. I'm thinking of using planed scaffolding planks, and maybe finding off the shelf...
