Desk Rescued From Basement

















Here is the desk we found in the basement of our new house. It was missing one drawer (the other drawers aren't in the photo), so Pancake made a false front using a piece of Masonite and some cabinet magnets. Also, you can't tell from the picture, but the legs were rotted. Here's the breakdown of refinishing costs:

4 Wooden Legs..............$9.96
4 Nuts..................... 2.40
7 Draw Pulls................8.33
Paint......................11.48
Glass Top..................36.00
________________________________
Grand Total...............$68.17
