My girl friend and I have spent about $300 dollars on materials to build our new work area and office.
That included paint, MDF, trim, screws and border.
My gf and I needed both an office and a work area so we devised this plan.
The room (a spare bedroom) is 12' X 12'. We had originally planned to put a
wrap around work surface...
but ended up going with an E shaped surface, the middle part holding our
massive monitors, one in one direction and the other in the opposite direction.
This arragement works great.
Will post pics shortly of the whole process.
