[TowerTalk] Help with a good desk!

[Gary "Joe" Mayfield]

Alfredo,

     I have been very happy with edge glued panels.  Several companies make
them and your local lumber yard has them, or can get them.  They will easily
hold a boat anchor station forever without warping.  They are pretty easy to
work and require no special tools.  They can also be finished to be
beautiful!

Some thing like these:

I used 3 pieces that were 30" X 60".  My Bench/operating area is now 30" X
180".  The supports are standard 2x4s

73 and Good Luck,
Joe kk0sd

Hi

     I want to build a good desk to my station room and I would like to know
a good and strong wood panel, because it will hold heavy stuff (radios,
amplifiers, etc.) Thanks
