- In this video I'll show you how I built my own desk for my home music studio. It has built in drawers for a keyboard, effects unit, and speaker stands just right for mixing. The stands also house my computer, external hard drives, and a mixing board.
Here's how I made the legs - • Studio Desk Legz (legs...

i like your style of theory, ''there's nothing that feels better to build something that no one else has or can easily duplicate'' i also does the same when am building stuff thanks a lot
Nature King Thank you very much. I think plans for this kind of project would be frustrating for everyone, since I built it around equipment I already had. Thanks for watching and the thoughtful comment.
MAN I ALMOST CRY AT THE END OF THE VIDEO I MEAN THIS MOVIE, IT’S LIKE A DOCUMENTARY, I LOVE WHAT YOU SAID AT THE END, MAKE THINGS WHICH CAN NOT BE DUPLICATED HAVE YOUR OWN TASTE OF LIFE, BE YOURSELF, I NEVER MADE OR BUILT A THING IN MY LIFE BUT TODAY ILL START, AND YOU HAVE FREAKING GREAT VOICE, THANKS AGAIN
Thank you for the kind words. I needed them today.
You did a wonderful job and u right is nothing like having your own i deals and to be creative .......
thank you for sharing your enthusiasm. For the most part, your creativeness and joy in your build was the most contagious to me...
This is great wood-work. I'm a beginner at it but love making stuff. Your message at the end alone is worth the watch and I fully agree. I've started my own producer desk and despite some mistakes, I'm pretty proud of what I made this far. Anyway, inspiring ! Thanks !
For some reason this dude is a good man great work, great video, great explanation, well done mate...
I must say, this is impressive! I’m in my 30s and am about to start building a desk for my studio with my dads help. I love your drawer design!
A trick : watch series on Flixzone. Been using them for watching loads of movies these days.
@Sylas Aaron definitely, been watching on Flixzone} for since december myself :)
I aspire to be able to do stuff like this one day
That is a very nice desk beautiful design I like the black in the natural wood good job
Thank you!
you need to make a documentary.. like your voice is spot on for something like that xD also good desk i want it lol
This is beautiful, and similar to the desk I'm designing for myself. Very helpful.
Thank yo so much for your video its a blessing to me. I know nothing about wood work but i have a desire to do so, this gave me even the more encouragement build me a studio desk
T Sent Thank you for you kind words.
I like the look of this table ! Excellent design, great work !
Thanks
I really love your drawer design !! It's quite unique
Truly inspiring, thank you. I have a dilemma of not much space, and being creative in maximising it!
What a great father. :)
Wow, you are very good at what you do sir. Thank you.
Thanks! Looks like the only way to get a 100% custom desk without mortgaging the house is to make it yourself. Will check out the dowelmax...looks like a real time saver. Also nice to hear how you tackled the oops with the speaker stands. Good to see folks showing how they overcome issues since we all run into them sooner or later.
Mark Lucero Thanks for the kind words!
Sweet build & nice choice with the gray stain finish
Thank you. I'm very happy with it also. Very industrial looking, but I can still see the wood grain. Thanks for watching.
I literally called out oh damn when I saw that shelf mistake. LOL! Great video thank you. I am on the verge of a similar project and I want to see other people make mistakes before I do. So again, thanks for that. You may hear from me again before this whole thing is over because you are awesome!
Thank you so much! I'd love to see your finished project.
FranklinWoodWorks haha. Probably not. I'm a total novice. What I am building is basically an extended table with a rollout keyboard drawer underneath. What I don't know how to do just yet is how to get everything together without putting screws through my desktop. I bought some brackets and some small screws but I'm still not sure that this is the best way to go. Any ideas? (Without using dowels)
Yes! Pocket Holes! You can either buy a kreg jig, or harbor freight sells the same thing for 1/4 the cost. TH-cam "pocket holes" and I think that will be your answer.
FranklinWoodWorks thank you!
Amazing job!!!👏👏
That is a bad ass desk.!!!
Thank you so much! This is exactly what I needed to watch. I'm building a very similar desk for my studio. I can't do rabbets, so I'll put dowels everywhere... I will steal your idea and not glue the shelf/speaker stands, that's genius... thank you for sharing how you messed up, I've only built a few things and this project intimidates me... I feel reassured to see that you had to rehearse, I'm not the only one feeling anxious about this kind of project... I really want it to look great... by the way, i'm mounting my desk on a motorized standing desk frame... wish me luck!
Fantastic! I'm happy you're encouraged to give it try. Let me know when you're done - I'd love to see pictures of the finished product.
Fantastic work! Nicely done.
I appreciate that. Thanks for watching.
the grey stain turned out beautiful. great job.
Thank you!
Great job.
Great job!
Amazing job
Very good job mate!!!
Awesome video. Great voice.
Lovely great work!
Very nice desk❤
That was amazing! And i really like the color combo.
Thifty Flipside I really fell in love with this shade of gray (no pun intended).
thorough... beautifully done man
Great Job!!
This is a beautiful desk. I really enjoyed the video too.
Thank you!
That looks awesome man! I'm gonna have to copy your legs when I build my desk. I look forward to meeting you in Atlanta.
Thank you!
That's nice OG💯💣...
Awesome x3! Great advice at the end about making your own design too. The thing I find is that I need to really use my gear and figure out some workflow stuff before I even know what I need. And then that will last 1-2 yrs if im lucky before I switch it all up. Gotta make everything more difficult, never satisfied lol. Also, the dowel jig! I want! Dont think I'll ever need one but that is the coolest tool i've seen in a while haha
So the challenge for you is to make something that can grow or change with you. This isn't as hard as you may think. Don't think in terms of what specific equipment you have now, just think in terms of types of equipment. Computer, keyboard, mixer, effects - all these can be generic in size and placement. The only thing I did that was equipment specific was where I put my mixer. I know that even if I get a different one, it will still be around the same size. I'm too old to ever need anything bigger. You could even incorporate, for lack of a better word, a "rack" system that will allow you to put any number of things in there, from power amps to interfaces. Of course the big advantage for me is that the only thing I'd ever need to pull out of my desk to go play somewhere is my POD HDX. I think you can do it.
good video
This desk is amazing.
You are very kind. Thanks for watching!
I love it....!
Looks good. I like the use of the dowels to make things nice and clean. Great work!
Thanks

I want a dad like that....
Excellent video. Great job.
That was awesome!!! Great Job!!!
Absolutely very cool studio desk...👍 Very inspiring, I’m a Logic Pro User, Thanks , great Video ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
great video! :O I didn't click on this video to intending to build this desk but your cool work and good commentary kept me watching until the end! I hope your son enjoyed the desk I would be ecstatic with a creation like this! Keep up the good work!
Oh my god. Amazing. Excellent video. !,,,
rcemusic Thank you, sir!
Really nice build!
Excellent work Brother
Smart designl
Thanks for sharing (the video about making the legs too). I'm currently planning to building a studio desk and trying out figure out options for the legs. My current design has three-way joints at the top of each of the four legs (with stretchers running between legs). Looking at you've done makes me think I possibly don't need all of the stretchers and can possibly simply the joint design.
I think I just got an idea of how I want the legs for my office table look like. love them 😁 but you forgot to link to the video. (i just went in an found it, but when people see this in a year it might be a lot of video to go through) 😁 good work
Thanks for bringing that to my attention. I fixed it, and I appreciate you watching and thank you for the kind words.
Love love this!
sweet desk! ☺
Thanks!

Good job.
Thank you sir!
Beautiful custom desk. Love the rustic/modern combo. Would you please tell what the gray stain is one more time and where to get it (my fav part)? Again, very well done. Troy
I used Varethane Carbon Gray wood stain bought at Home Depot. The whole project took a little over a half of a quart. Then I used Varathane Water Based Poly for the finish.
Thank you
Nice
thats great
Wonderfull job...I'm going too try and build my desk ...I have a big mixer that i would like too have sit flush with the desk top surface but don't know how too go about that...any way...
NICE
Very good job!!! Congratulation!!! How many for the desk please ??
nice
BEAUTIFUL DESK MAN , DID YOU ALSO MAKE YOUR BASS GUITAR.
I did, and I have a long video series on how I did it. I think there's 14 videos in the series, but each one is fairly short.
THE REASON I QUESTION BECAUSE I PLAY BASS AND I,M A LEFTY ,AND OVER THE LAST THIRTY YEARS I HAVE HAD SOME GREAT BASSES .BUT I REALLY WANT MAKE MY OWN BASS ,BECAUSE BY NOW I KNOW WHAT I WANT . IF THAT BASS IS YOUR DESIGN IT LOOKS GREAT .IT LOOKS LIKE A CROSS BETWEEN A MODULUS AND A MTD. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR VIDEOS AND AGAIN THANKS.
WOW
Cool
It would have been best if the completed product was shown first so that you would appreciate the work. This also helps to qualify if indeed the project meets the visitor's expectations and configuration.
Bobcatt22 You're probably right. My problem is that I hate talking on camera, and I have trouble envisioning an "intro" that doesn't involve me getting in front of .ca era to talk. Maybe I'll be able to figure something out for future videos.
Show the completed project as just an image before the work begins. You can just add the image to your initial comment.
Awesome video! I'm designing my new desk and the ideas you use are very inspiring. Also, do you do voiceover work?
That's funny! I don't think I'd be in high demand. By the way, I liked the Brandenburg challenge. Do you play professionally? I'm also curious where you went to music school. My son is looking into colleges now.
Thanks! I do play professionally. I went to OIART for Audio Engineering and the University of Windsor for my BMus. If your son is in interested in recording, live, and film audio, definitely give OIART a look.
Hi Sir, do you any any lists about items or equipment you used in making that desk?
CB No sir, I don’t. I used 2 full sheets of plywood, used to cut out the top and bottom on the table saw, and the remaining plywood is used for the dividers and drawers. I used a Dowelmax to drill the holes for the dowels.
How much would you charge to have this build for me, ship all the parts, I will assemble the desk in my studio? I wish I could build it but I don’t have the tools to do so...
just wondering but, if youwere to sell that dest how much would you ask for it ??
Geez, I've never priced a piece of furniture before. I've got $180 in materials in it, so maybe $850? At least $600.

It's a kiyak studio.
Very trendy
I have as much dust on my HD500X as you do.
Ha!

Not to be a jerk, nobody is perfect and you obviously do GREAT work, but how the heck did you not notice you put the piece in upside down?
SheepdogColumbus I've asked myself that question many times. I guess when you have many things going on at once, like spreading glue, clamping in odd directions, all with limited open time on the glue, mistakes happen. It's why I don't do this for a living.
As a boss of mine once told me "We don't make mistakes, we just make corrections!" , nice desk.
@@BlueJay7850 and as a boss of mine said "if you mess up and drop the turkey on the clean floor, you can dust it off and still cook it, but if you go to fry it outside and drop it on the ground in a pile of dog shit, then you gotta throw out the whole turkey. So, feel free to mess up, but make sure when you do, you're not messing up that whole turkey."
IMO, the upside down piece isn't whole turkey material lol

The horror at 5:09..... a wrong calculation and bye bye music career.
I agree. The camera angle kind of exaggerated it, but you notice I only did it once. Scared me too.
I LOVE IT!! Great job!!
