1. Stack some cinderblocks.

2. Place a discarded door on top of cinderblocks.

:closeenough:

i think my dad had found a door somewhere, might be around here. need cinder blocks

i had thought about buying a thick piece of plywood and some poles (???) and putting it together

Fatso · 03-13-2015, 11:50 PM

4x4s, 2x4s, and half inch ply for the top. If you wanted to get fancy, you could put edge banding on the ply.

shootermcgavin003 · 03-13-2015, 11:55 PM

2 file cabinets and a door would be awesome

4x4's for legs. 2x4's for frame/edges/joists under 1/2" plywood because 1/2" plywood ain't gonna hold shit without some structure. Know how a wall is constructed? Same design.

Cez★ · 03-14-2015, 12:31 AM

alll i seee yeah, so 2x4s under connecting both

**stonehenge** · 03-14-2015, 02:22 AM

Is there an IKEA in jewston? I think they sell legs with brackets for cheap. Just get them and screw to door.

Idk though, never been.

Cez★ · 03-14-2015, 02:29 AM

yeah there is one across town. id need to find flat door lol. and lowes be closer for all the wood stuffz i need.

shootermcgavin003 · 03-14-2015, 02:50 AM

Flat door is 20 bucks at Lowe's but if you cut it down there is problem they be hollow. You can cut them down have to knock 1x2 out that's in edge or bottom and reglue and tack it back in.

sounds like much work

shootermcgavin003 · 03-14-2015, 02:54 AM

Takes 5 mins.

Cez★ · 03-14-2015, 02:55 AM

would the structural integrity of the deskdoor be compromised?

shootermcgavin003 · 03-14-2015, 03:00 AM

Not once you put the edge piece back in. Another good idea is two get two small cheap shelves and screw door to top of them. Then has storage too. Can slide some baskets in that for drawers.

Cez★ · 03-14-2015, 03:01 AM

ohh yeah. thats nice idea. i just want some desk space for me to do some homework on. shits tough here.

think dad just went to follow mom to work, niga thinks shes cheating on him

shootermcgavin003 · 03-14-2015, 03:02 AM

Walmart sells some things like I'm talking about for under 20 bucks.

If I can make this, you can make a proper desk.

Made it for an aquarium

Cez★ · 03-14-2015, 03:06 AM

i dont doubt i cant make it. just needed to know whats needed. so its either door or plywood

**stonehenge** · 03-14-2015, 03:11 AM

Cez gonna have bamf DIY desk

Fatso · 03-14-2015, 03:13 AM

I would use plywood. My computer weighs damn near 50lbs, so I wouldn't use a hollow interior door to try and support it. Maybe try a salvage shop for a solid wood door if you don't want ply. MDF has a nice smooth surface, but will swell if exposed to water so I would seal it.

**stonehenge** · 03-14-2015, 03:20 AM

If it swells with skeet exposure, its a no-go.

Cez★ · 03-14-2015, 03:21 AM

u put desktop on top of it?

interesting.. i was thinking of going plywood because honestly dont want to cut up a door and putting it back together. sounds weak if i put anything like me weight leaning on it. and i think with ply i'd have more liberty/ease to cut it in whatever shape id want

**theholycow** · 03-14-2015, 03:23 AM

@ all of the door talk. Door is ghetto desk. You use a door because it was free. If you're buying shit don't buy a fucking door.

BTW, can haz desks and tables free on CL free stuff, Freecycle, etc.

BTW if you do score a door from a remodeling/demolition project's dumpster, you're looking for an old solid door.
