Nice.

I bet it would have been impossible to buy as good of one to fit your needs!

Thanks, and you're right, the full size keyboard drawer is not available anywhere I could find.

That is good looking work station, Jerry!! It should last a lifetime too, they way you built it.
Your table saw jig reminds me of Izzy Swan!!
Cheers, Jim

Thanks Jim, yes, it's pretty solid, and yes, I copied Izzy Swan's jig for the tenons

You gotta get inspiration wherever you can find it!

Beautiful job Jerry, I would never have guessed those legs are veneered plywood. I must agree with ralbuck it would be nearly impossible to buy something like that. It's one of those times when you can say " Its nice to be a woodworker"

Thanks very much Paul!

I did consider the idea of solid legs, but hickory can move quite a lot, and the legs have to remain absolutely stable for this to work. I suppose I could have laminated some hickory boards together, but then I'd have a bunch of seams, and I don't think it would have looked as nice.

Yes, it's great to be able to do something like this for ones self.

Looks very nice. I like the hickory. I am working on a mission desk as well. Red oak. I used a mortising machine to make the through mortises but if I ever do that again I will use a router.

Thanks for posting!

Really beautiful, Ben. As it turns out, the desk I replaced with this build was a corner desk! How ironic. I used a hollow chisel mortiser on this as well. Awhile back when I made the island, I cut the mortises by hand. Never again! That was a lot of work.

Very unusual style for that purpose, but excellent made. Very nice and profesionaly made

Nice desk - hickory is such a nice HARD specie, should stand up quite well

Yeah, it's not what you'd usually see in Mission furniture, but I'm trying to follow a theme for the whole house, I still have two end tables, two night stands, an office desk, a bed, a book case and a few other things I'm forgetting, to build. My original plan was to build a house full of Mission furniture, and this is the second piece in that plan. Thanks for looking in and for your kind words Ivan.

Thanks Dick, hard, hard, hard, AND stinky. I love the way it looks, but I hate the way it smells when I'm cutting it!

Very nice Jerry! I really like your jig for making the tenons. Looks like it will be useful for years!

AandCstyle · Apr 7, 2019

Wow! Jerry, that is quite the setup for your workstation. I haven't seen that method of making tenons; it looks like it took some time to make them all, not to mention all the sawdust. Enjoy your desk, it looks great. Congrats on the DT3.
