This stuff was done for the new Santa Rosa Junior College Library, which opened this fall, the first pic is the backside of the desk in the last pic.

It looks beautiful did you design and build this? What material did you use and how long did it take?

Do you have more pictures, maybe after they unpacked?

cj2112 12-23-2006 08:58 AM

It wasn't my design, but it was my build, the big desk took a little over 2 weeks, It is a p-lam top wrapped with solid maple, the desk itself is a MDF core w/ Maple veneers, over a diewall built out of 1-1/8" thick plywood studs. The upper top is Granite, supported with stainless steel, the cabinets underneath are also maple veneer over particle board cores, they feature full extension ball bearing glides w/ 9ply birch drawer boxes.

The rounded desk (that another trade has set their set of prints on) is also maple veneers on MDF core over a diewall built using 1-1/8" thick plywood studs. The top is the same type of granite. This one took me the better part of a week.

I didn't do the install work, so I was pretty happy when I received these pictures.

very nice indeed.
that is one lucky library.

but you didn't design it, and you didn't install it...

so you built it off site?

cj2112 12-30-2006 11:10 PM

Yep, built it off site, then palletized and shipped via common carrier.

doodlebird 12-30-2006 11:16 PM

how many pieces / palettes?

cj2112 12-30-2006 11:48 PM

The larger desk was shipped on three 4'x8' pallets, the drawer units in it are separate pieces as well as the lower top is three pieces, the upper top is two and the desk itself is 4 pieces not counting the gate.

The smaller counter/ wall is 4 pieces including the top, and shipped on two pallets.

The number of pallets used for shipping puts the size into perspective. Insane! Beatiful craftsmanship.
