Five Steps to Build Your Own Desk
The construction of the desk can be divided into five steps.
- Draw a plan for the desktop according to how you want it to look and what space you have available. This can be done on graph paper.
- Cut the desktop out of the raw MDF material. This can be done with a circular saw and high quality jig saw if you have curves in the plan.
- Attach the Kee Klamp fittings and build the base. Building the foundation simply involves cutting the pipe and using an Allen wrench.
- Pain the desktop and adding the keyboard tray. Painting the MDF is essential because it swells very easily when wet and puts off dust if it is not painted. Painting involves the three steps of priming, painting, and finishing.
- Add the adjustable keyboard unit by attaching the sliding track to the bottom of the desktop and the rest of the unit to the bottom of the keyboard tray that is cut out of MDF. This will create a smooth-functioning sliding ergonomic keyboard tray.
