Sep 28, 2016 - Building a Computer Shelf for Christine
Growing Room
My daughter still lives at home and is quickly
outgrowing the space in her room. So we tried to do a bit of a makeover
to make better use of the space. As part of this redesign I built a small
shelf so she could move her computer off her desk. It also provided a few
extra inches of space on top, and a second shelf for charging up phones
and tablets.
Storm to Shelf
We had an alder tree blow down in a wind storm a
year earlier. I cut up that tree and milled what I could into boards.
They've been drying in my garage for several months, so I figured this
would be a good project to try using them. This was only my second time
to build a project with lumber I milled myself, and I was happy with the
way it turned out.
