Woodworking

So I've gotten into woodworking... And by gotten into, I mean I started building something small a few months ago and I'm not quite finished... Still, I like to think that I will eventually complete it and move on to bigger and better things. At the top of that list of bigger and better things is a new computer desk. That will definitely be a big project, but I'm looking forward to the challenge.

So of course, I started off with something simple in mind, but then I came across this...

In case you couldn't tell, this guy built a desk with the idea to put the computer INSIDE the actual desk. The motherboard is mounted inside and all of the components are visible through clear plexiglass. He actually has the whole thing water cooled, with the reservoir enclosed in the right side of the desk (along with the power supply).

 

Now I'm not saying that I would be doing THAT, because that would be quite an ambitious project for a novice builder, but maybe I'll use it as inspiration. First things first, I have to finish that end table...
