Posted November 15, 2014 Dark D3sk Hey so this is my first scratch build i am doing. One day I was looking at my old build an I thought to myself well this is nice and everything but it look generic compared to most of the computer cases these days so I thought that I sould build myself a new case for my computer. I was original inspired by Peter and his L3p D3sk, so that what I am planning to build, A desk like his but I wanted it to be better (as in looks) so I opened up Google Sketch up and started making the first designs in there and this is what I came up with(P.S Started this build about 2 years ago but have been held up with schooling and exams. But since I have just finished school, I will be able to finally finish the desk build. So this is why i'm finally posting it over here )Now I have got started with the build by getting the materials and bending the bay for the deskSo is finally got around to making the frame and bay for the desk, still LOADS to go before the desk is finished~Update~so i finally got the false bottom cut for my desk now, there is still a lot i have to do with the false bottomMore to come!
