Desk for JC part 2













Now it is time to connect the legs to the desk top, left; here we have the right leg with the braces which have been handcut to fit to the top of the leg (right photo). The braces are glued to the leg, then the leg is attached to the desk top (bottom left).





























After attaching the first leg, I shaped (grinding the hard edges) and then, attached the other leg. Next to the leg (the bloodwood, red) are the drawer slides, which is attached to the top in a channel that I routed out.














This is the drawer which I made from Bloodwood, and Walnut that was cut from slab that the top is made from. Notice the drawer front is at an angle, this is because the desk is at a slight slant as well. The drawer matches up with the front of the desk but pulls out straight.
