    Ok so I saw a picture of a computer desk and thought I could do better.
    Its made from:

    3/4" oak plywood
    pine 2X4's cut down to 1/8" thick on top edge and 1/4" down the side for trim around the top and bottom.
    3/8"X3/4" mahogany trim for front and back of desk (hides the pesky ends of plywood)
    lots of glue, biscuit wafers, wooden dowels, polyurethane, cherry stain for bottom parts of desk and red mahogany stain for top of desk some pin stripping and car decals to add a little extra to it (note: decals and pin stripping are under 4 coats of poly)
    very little hardware was used in this desk

    fans, switch, and wires I got from http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php

    UV reactive acrylic was from http://www.acryan.com/en/


    I may not have the most up to date hardware but I get by with what I have :)

    also pictures may be random during build I took at different times


    So enjoy I know I am.

    That...

    But yea, nice setup. I'm thinking of doing one of these pc-built-right-into-desk mods some day, heh, they're pretty sweet.
