DIY Computer Desk | How To Build a Desk | Farmhouse | Cheap & Easy | $100

In this Pinterest inspired DIY video I share a simple how to build a desk cheap and easy for around $100.

This farmhouse style desk was built with very little complicated woodworking techniques making this something most everyone can tackle. The need for this project came from my wife now working from home like many right now. The design of the desk was inspired from a few ideas found on Pinterest. I used Fusion 360 to 3d model the design and then started building. Nominal size lumber from any big box store is all you need for this design. The desk was made from 2x4’s, 2x8’s and 4x4’s and then finished with Minwax Polyshades. The cost for the wood was right around $100, other required items would be screws, wood glue, and your choice of finish. The overall dimension are 4' by 6' by 21" wide. The top for the desk sits 30" above the floor and gives plenty of leg room and arm for a computer chair. The painted white legs (can be whitewashed), X shaped legs, combined with the think 1.25" think darker stained top is what makes it the farmhouse style.
