Description

Since the lockdown, more and more people are working from home. To work there comfortably, you need sufficient desk space. I placed a desktop on an IKEA base (Skarsta), to have a thicker and more solid top. I placed the other top on an IKEA chest of drawers (Alex) and 2 legs.

Work description: how did you realize your project

I flattened the edges of the plywood by apply wood filler. I then sanded both tops well and primed them. Then sanded again and provided with satin gloss lacquer from Histor. I gave the tops of the tops a layer of lacquer.

The first top is quite easy to attach to the IKEA base, using 8 screws. The second top is screwed through the top of the chest of drawers from the bottom. Here an extra beam has been screwed along the length for extra stiffness.

Final size: What are the outside dimensions?

Desk 1: 160.0 cm x 70.0 cm x 80, 0 cm (LxDxH)
Desk 2: 248.0 cm x 60.0 cm x 80.0 cm (LxDxH)
