Hey guys. I have an old desk that my dad got from work or something. I feel bad for it since it was made out of mahogany and then kinda slapped together.
So I'm trying to fix it up and turn it into a fancy work desk. I'm essentially a technophile so the "electronics" built in is a totally cool concept for me. BUT with the same of the two base towers I don't know how to make it look more fancy. So far it looks pretty plain since all the "mess" on it will be hidden. Any ideas would be appreciated especially for the cabinetry portion.
Also, for the card reader/cd drive portion, what would the thing I need be called where when you press on it, it'll pop up on its own, something to do with hydraulics maybe? Non-electric though.
Finally, Any idea what type of wood that is? My dad and I think it is mahogany but not exactly sure.
