    Been wanting to get a bigger desk and could NOT pass this up! Ten bucks and a few hours unplugging and plugging things in and here's the result:

    If I had time and a place to do it I would like to have refinished it, but it's doing the job nicely. Someday...

    What did you do with old table? That looks like a nice farm kitchen table...

    Put it upstairs in storage. It's a really nice little desk but I need more space. I'll use it again somewhere else.

    Nice score Son.
    But now it's time to stop playing video games and drinking beer and start practice you scales and arpeggios :laugh::D.

    Re-using old wooden tables is really cool. Re-using beer, however, is not. :eek::vomit:

    Another wood-veneered score. Five bucks for a pair of Realistic Minimus 0.3, Auratone style. Not my pic but I'll post more later:

    Three inch drivers, 4 cubic inch enclosure. Heavier that I suspected when I saw them. I might snipe a cheap Chinese tube amp to try them out on, but I do have a little radio or two I could use these with. They take up to a whopping 7 watts. Kaboom!
