In 2003, I moved my home office into a larger space and finally had
room for a man sized computer desk. It is 75" wide, 36" deep, and
60" tall. It contains 1-1/2 sheets of 3/4" oak veneer plywood,
1/2 sheet of 1/2" oak veneer plywood, 37 b-f of solid oak, 1/2 sheet of
1/2" plywood, 1/2 sheet of 1/4" oak veneer plywood, and a sheet of
baltic birch plywood for the drawers. The large drawers on the
bottom are set up for hanging files. The desk disassembles into
27 pieces. It has to, or it could never be moved! The two
side towers are independent units. The center desktop connects
between them. A skirt board un the knee area also ties the units
together. The two hutch units are also independent with the top
tying everything together. I like lots of work area and arm
support when running the mouse. I designed the pullout tops to
accommodate this need while still keeping everything at the same
working height. The two top sections pull out 18" and lock in
place. The bottom of each hutch unit conceals this movement and
the extra workspace magically appears. The drawer units are only
24" deep, leaving 12" behind them for a UPS, plug strips, and other
accessories. The inside panel at the rear of each drawer tower is
removable for access to this area.
Here's the finished desk with the equipment installed.
