Making a desk featuring old wooden crates

Step 3Assembly

Assembly
Put together the shelves, outside legs and desktop. It may be a little wobbly so attaching a board on the back diagonally may be a wise idea at least temporarily.

I suggest stacking the crates you have in a few different arrangements to determine what will work best. Originally i did not plan on having the printer below the desktop but after having it on the desktop for a while i decided to move it below. Turning the crates wide side out may leave room for a desktop computer tower behind.

I had originally intended on integrating a paper/cardboard recycling and refuse station into the design but that didn't work out.
