And I thought I wimped out by not making like fine furniture... had it been made to stay in the basement I probably wouldn't have bothered to paint it, but since this room sees multiple use - there's already two computer desks in here plus a stand that holds me desktop and server, with the laser printer on top (yes, the one I'm building will fit too, I measured it - not twice but about 5 times), AND if guests overflow the other spare room, an air mattress or two go on the floor in here... It is indeed strong - so much that I left off the critical middle leg on the bag, not needed for support of the table but kind of needed for the shelves, so I do have it ready to stick on now. I wanted tough - the computer desk I am using now, I've had for over 25 years, and it has moved at least a dozen times now, yet still is solid and wobble free - and of all things, it was one of those build it yourself from a flat pack of pieces things, got it at Staples way back when. Not sure what this thing is made from, but it is not that cheap chipboard garbage for sure. It's also quite large, but not big enough for computer stuff, trains, and electronics (and I do household stuff here as well, like paying the bills) so enter the dedicated hobby bench. I plan on getting at least the long side installed this weekend, as long as I can get help carrying the top up - solid core doors are HEAVY. Need to place an Amazon order for the monitor arm, anti-stat mat, and ISOBAR power strip. The holdup on the rest is cutting down the door. It's one of those "never did this before" things that I drag my feet on. I know I will have to reconstruct the edge at the cut side - it's a 'solid' door but the inside is supposedly just some high density particle stuff that is loosely held together. I just hope I can build new edge using the limited woodworking tools I have. It just needs to hold together, it is the edge that will butt up against the long side, so it doesn't have to be super nice.
