Cheap and easy desk

Step 5 In place in his room

The walls washed out in the flash here, but you can see how much space he has now, w/ the 17" screen and the USB microscope tucked off to the side. The desk is 31" tall, so it'll be perfect counter height for him now, and perfect desk height as he grows into it. We're planning to just buy him a normal sized desk chair for doing his homework.
