Quick Writing Desk, in the Shaker Style (WnW #32)

I built this writing desk in a weekend, and I bet you could too. It’s quick, simple, and elegant.

I designed this to be a quick and easy project, while not being ugly. The top is a simple plywood piece, but dressed up with some faux breadboard ends which give the illusion of a much more difficult solid hardwood top. The understructure is made of red oak, but with very simple joinery. The majority of it is simple, strong, pocket-hole joints. However most of this is hidden away so no one can see. (There are also a few dowel joints, which was a compromise when I ran out of pocket-hole screws!)

I built this in about 8-10 hrs of work, followed by a few more hours of applying finish, spread out over three days.
