  Cabinet-making is a fascinating chapter in the history of Russian applied art in the eighteenth century. In the second half of that century Nikifor Vasilyev, Matvei Veretennikov, the Naskov, and other expert Russian cabinet-makers produced lovely pieces of marquetry furniture-tables, chests of drawers, bureau and escritoires, as well as magnificent parquetry floors for palace halls. There fine furniture stands out for its graceful, unencumbered shape and exquisite colour harmony. This work is illustrated with 202 examples in color. Text and captions in Russian and English.

I was bored today, so I decided to build a gaming desk for my room, and added space for my Xbox 360, and my stereo system. Took me only two hours to make.

This was actually an old school desk that I found in my garage. but it needed more space on the top for the tv.

So, would anyone be interested in seeing me turn a couple of $35 sheets plywood into my new bookcases?
