My next project is to construct a work station for my husband. I know he's been dying to have his own workstation where he can do the paperwork, computerwork, reading and his crazy megahobby- building air craft model but with a very limited of budget that we had when we first moved in to the new house, we felt that we need to forget about it. But not anymore.
For the concept, I'm planning to have an open and multipurpose workstation. Pics attached (from ikeahacker) are some good sample for me to begin with the planning and construction. Believe it or not, the desk top you are actually see is a PAX high gloss cabinet door from Ikea. Initially it was a Galant Desk, but the Owner wanted a new look and found the a suitable top for his new desk top.
He says,"I didn't wanted to use my old (Galant) desk top so searched for an alternative. I found a high gloss for the Pax cabinet system for 20 pound. As table legs I reused my old ones from the (Galant) table".
Cool huh! Well, I'm not sure how much it costs here. But it would be much super-duper cool if I could find something in IKEA 'AS-IS' section where they usually keep ex-display doors, table tops, and etc there. Any luck with AS-IS stuff section? Yup. Surely do because most of my IKEA stuffs were bought from this section. Chaiyok!
