Diy Desk With Hairpin Legs
I built aiden this one a couple years ago so i wanted jake s to be similar but i slightly modified the design to include some storage bins and some additional secret storage bins that pop open using magnets.
Diy desk with hairpin legs. All you need is a plank of wood of your choice live edge is super trendy right now and some hair pin legs. For this design to look nice and be stable in both a corner position and a long position i suggest placing your last two hairpin legs centered over the square you drew so that they are about 1 2 away from the square and facing. They will dry while you are working on the top of the desk. This is so cool.
Since jake has been using jonah s desk which is just too small i decided to build him a new diy plywood desk with hairpin legs. Today on modern builds i m making diy steel hairpin legs for a live edge slab table i worked on with johnny brooke from crafted workshop and cressel anderson. The board is a little wider than what my miter saw can handle so i cut it. Use pocket holes to connect the 2x12s.
