[RTTY] Glass top

[Al Kozakiewicz]

I have a similar desk I bought when this was our second home and have continued to use it while my wife finds other projects to do that delay a decent solution.

Needs a mouse pad to use an optical mouse. 

Tempered glass is tough as hell.  One of my vices is cigars. I dropped a heavy glass cigar ashtray onto the desktop.  The desk survived without a scratch. The ashtray shattered into many pieces.

The desk I currently use is actually a L-shaped office desk I bought
from Office Depot a few years back.  The frame is totally metal and the
glass fits on top.  It rattles quite bad when I type on my laptop.  The
glass is 1/4 inch tempered glass which is pretty tuff stuff considering
how many time this glass has fallen over when I was moving this desk.
It is ok I guess for an office but not for the abuse I generally give a
operating desk.  I like to drill holes for computer and radio cables.
