Hey guys,

Let me tell you, Matt is a combat of smarty pants guy. He wants to practise everything himself, he wants no assistance until peradventure he's exhausted all possible methods, in addition to fifty-fifty then, he tries 1 finally fourth dimension simply to meet what.

Well, Matt loves to play video games, in addition to given that he had to play his games on his dad's quondam figurer made him rattling unhappy. The games didn't run fast plenty for him.

So, 1 time once to a greater extent than he went to solve his work yesteryear learning how to create a faster computer, in addition to yeah, inwards lodge to brand this story short, he built his ain powerful pc, alongside a powerful video card, in addition to of course, a clear enshroud to meet all the lights within the unit of measurement alongside the changing colors he wanted.

There he was, enjoying the fruits of his labor! :D

But, every bit y'all noticed, his workspace was non that much fun.

He went online searching for a figurer desk to jibe his ain specific needs... The desk needed to locomote narrow, strong, long plenty to jibe betwixt the 2 bookcases, in addition to alongside no apron because he needed to clamp unopen to stuff from it.

Ha, his long search didn't hit adept results. The exclusively desk he saw, within the qualities he was looking for, was agency out of his $200 budget. So, he finally went to his mama to enquire if she could construct it.

My answer: Oh, sure, but correct at 1 time I'm a combat busy. He waited. And waited...

Until earlier the start of the schoolhouse twelvemonth when nosotros went to purchase the supplies. Yep, nosotros settled into edifice a pipage desk.

He helped putting the pipage base of operations together, assembling the entire affair on the liberate side.

It was tightened at the end.

RYOBI 6-Amp Biscuit Joiner Kit

Then, I went ahead to construct the desk-top in addition to I loved using this novel to me tool! Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 Ryobi Biscuit Joiner.

I didn't know using a Biscuit Joiner was SO easy! If you're novel to it, allow me tell you, a biscuit joiner is used to bring together 2 pieces of woods together. It holds a small-scale round down saw blade to cutting a crescent-shape hole inwards both contrary edges of 2 pieces of wood. Then, y'all tin gather the pieces alongside a biscuit in addition to glue. Clamping them together piece the mucilage dries.

What I dearest most this desktop is that it's STRONG in addition to in that location are no holes or screws showing. :)

With both pieces ready, it was fourth dimension to convey them to the room in addition to set them together. But my oh my, I didn't similar this view. :/ That's the component division of our unfinished basement that belongs to Mr. RLC in addition to well, present to the boy.

The affair is, Mr. RLC thinks that yesteryear placing stuff on the flooring in addition to having it within his view, that's organization.

I've organized this infinite inwards the past, but it ever reverts to this pandemonium. :(

Windworn Wall Panel

However, at 1 time that Matt is working inwards hither every bit well, in addition to knowing he's non a disorganized boy, I decided to hand it a makeover. Because really, my pretty desk deserved a amend space! :D

The outset affair to do: Emptying the space, removing all that crap!
Then, the infinite betwixt the bookshelves got framed in addition to covered. Who wants to meet that shiny in addition to ugly insulation correct upwards front.

I removed the slice of yucky carpet in addition to replaced it alongside a novel piece. This was, inwards my opinion, the biggest change. I got this large remnant slice (12' x 15') at Home Depot for exclusively $116. They sell those left over pieces alongside a adept discount. ;)
It feels thence adept in addition to it totally changed the feeling of "the room" from a dungeon to an actual room.

Corkwood Carpet - Color: Taos

I didn't add together a pad, this is a temporary solution in addition to it is quite thick.

So, the desk was set together...

And I LOVE it!!! Most importantly, my boy loves it!

And he loves his novel space! Talk most a proud mama. ;)

I even thence bespeak to acquire in addition to organize that pile of crap I pushed aside. Some shelves are inwards the works. ;)
