Major progress

It has been a pretty productive week for me; I painted the lower half of the desk, the sliding keyboard drawer piece, and the shelf pieces. I also finalized my design for the vinyl thats going on the main desk surface and got it cut out as well as getting my design laser etched into the acrylic piece which serves as the backboard for the shelves. I have everything I need scattered in one place, now I just need to put everything together. I'm still debating whether I should apply the vinyl to the desk then paint over it to create a negative image, or to just apply the vinyl on top of the painted surface. Either way I should be able to finish the bulk of the work today.

Here's some photos of the progress:




The laser cut acrylic looks beautiful, and even more so with the blue light shining through it.


Here's the design i decided on. The grey lines represent the vertical panels which hold the shelves and the top piece together
