An old table gets a new lease on life is made brand new again.

   This is out of the archives of work that I've done for customers. But seeing how I've been doing so many restorations I figured, why not?

The Pine Knoll Office Desk

  Taxes, bills, reports, research, paperwork- no matter what you call it chances are you don't really want to be doing it. Either way,  it has to be dealt with.  Preferably in an office. Usually in that office is some semblance of a desk. Whether it was made from an old door and some cinder blocks in college or a cheap pressed chip board with printed wood graphics from some office supply store or Costco chances are you didn't like sitting at your desk in your office.
