A trip to visit my retirement adviser did double duty as on the way back I picked up some 6/4 Cherry and Baltic Birch Plywood. My plan is to make 4 copies of a folding desk design I made when in college. This time the legs, stretchers and top trim will be cherry rather than the maple I used originally. Slow steps. Patience to maximize the part yield I can get from the 3 cherry boards I bought. First part will be the desk sides. 2" tall. 24" long, 1.25" thick. Here is a render from Aspire showing the outcome from CNC pockets and end profiles for the sides. Left and right version will be needed. I have some joinery details to work out, and need to figure out the best way to clamp the rough rectangles to my CNC bed to make the cuts. Slow steps. No rush. I'll post updates for this project as I proceed. 4D

This desk design of mine has been the most duplicated project of mine. Seems most can use a desk. It was 1981 when I was a college student driving a small hatchback and tried to make sure all my furniture design projects could fit in my car. The photos are scans of professional photos I had taken of my projects around 1988. Found them in an old notebook. The little knee-rest stool in the image was a class project done by my students. It had one rear caster which we eventually discovered like to gnaw pits in the soft fir floors of our building. The full story and an image of the desk folded can be found here: https://4dfurniture.blogspot.com/2022/08/a-folding-desk-my-award-winning-design.html
