I just ordered 4 cabinet knobs for my desk.

This is not the color. I ordered it in the black with cherry wash. I hope it matches the desk. I chose a lizard in honor of the Late Great Jim Morrison.
I have discovered they also have a blog at blogspot:

Pay them a visit if you decide you need a change.

Built 2 drawers



Well we finally built 2 of the drawers for the desk. They go into the piece to the far left. We built them for CD storage. We built them around 3 onyx CD towers.

We will have to cut one in half so we will have one and a half in each drawer. The drawers fit one on top of the other. We were short on room so we had to change some twobyes to onebyes on the frame so that they would fit the way we wanted. Of coarse the towers will have to be laid down but it should work perfect.
I also ordered some lights

To put in all my drawers. They are suppose to come on when you open the drawer and go off when you close it. It should be a nice feature.
I know I keep promising pictures but be patient.

Finished Framing

Well, again. its taking longer then estimated. I've been sick and Dad's been busy too but we finally finished framing the final piece today. The next step is to build 4 drawers and 2 shelves into the inner body of the two side pieces and to also do the wiring. Then we can start covering. After that I will show you some pics. Don't get in too big of a hurry for them though. We still have to stain and put a finish on it. So until next time.
