Old pc desk to control panel.

<< < (2/2)

Looking at that desk makes me glad I didn't add the joy and buttons to my workstation.  :lol

shponglefan:
I don't usually like to be negative, but this looks like it could have had the potential to be decent, but the button spacing and stickers kinda kills it for me.

This is a pretty neat idea.  How hard would it be to replace the wood and try again.  To stop the chipping you saw, you could have done 2 things, cut the whole half way on one side, then half way from the other, or clamp a peice of scrap wood over the whole you were cutting, so you drilled into that wood rather then just push out from the inside. 

i would give it another go, and try to re space the buttons properly.

It shouldn't be too hard to replace the wood, in fact the desk has a pretty nice frame to work with. How about enclosing it, Here's an example, (sorry I'm at work and only have "paint" to work with).
Those 3 circles are the admin buttons. You can even enclose the monitor.   ;D
