Diy Desk With File Cabinets

It was one of the easiest and quickest ways to put together a large desk space.

Diy desk with file cabinets.

Diy butcher block desk. Diy file cabinet desk. I went the cheap route pine 1 6 planks from home depot. Peel off backing strip.

Earlier this year we built a diy butcher block desk for my home office. Come learn how to build a diy file cabinet desk using just a couple file cabinets and some plank boards. And here it is all styled up and pretty. We basically got two file cabinets and placed a piece of butcher block on top and voila.

You want to pick out wood that will line up as best as possible. The first step was to get the wood. Allow 24 between pedestals for ample seating room. Place the two file cabinets in the location of your desk approximately 58 apart outside to outside with their backs about 1 away from the wall.

This is one of the most important parts. Place a piece of double faced tape on each corner of the top of each file cabinet. I centered the middle cabinet and placed the left and right cabinets 24 apart leaving a generous opening for a desk chair. To assemble your diy desk space your file cabinets evenly and lay the diy desktop on top of the cabinets.

Now it was time to build the desk.
