    Let's take a moment to appreciate awesome Dads. Dad is always clutch in these kinds of situations.

    Great video. And, you did it without a motorized desk -- kudos! I like your butcher block top. I want one of those also but can't find it at Lowe's or Home Depot. ... working with your Father on the shelf is the greatest. Showing his seasoned hands working on the wood is the best part of the B-roll for me. You see, I'm 63 now and I still have the first set of tool sockets my Father gave me as a young teen working on my first car, 1966 Mustang. My dad has transitioned now, so enjoy these times together. God bless and stay safe. Peace.

    I did a desk build recently with a walnut veneered plywood and used the same Arm R Seal Satin. Turned out great! But I didn't realize until after I started that it takes about 24 hours to dry, but the final coat takes 30 DAYS to fully cure.
    As long as you're not putting anything heavy on the top, it's fine, but it can deform the finish if it's too heavy.

    I know this video is over a year old, but I still love the style and look of your setup, here. I have watched the latest one, but I still like this minimalist style.
    I just bought the wood to make my new desk. I also just bought the MX Keys and the MX Master 3S. Before that, I upgraded my monitor (from dual 24" to a single curved ultrawide 32"). I have the monitor mounted on the wall, but I still need to run the cables in the wall. I'll wait on that until I get the new desk built since it will be out of the way and I can get to that wall much easier. I'm also mounting my USB hub and a couple other things to the underside of the desk, similar to what you did.
    The desk I'm building will have cable management built into it, too. I hate seeing cables, so I made sure to add that to the design.

    • @LeeLechner
      @LeeLechner  2 роки тому

      I personally still really like it. I'm not someone that knows a ton about what makes a desk chair perfect though, so I'm sure there are other great options out there as well. My only complaint has been that where you rest your arms, they aren't locked in place. I believe it's like that because your arms are constantly moving around. But it would be nice if the chair has a feature to lock them
