$3.99 sq-ft at Lowes plus a 20% discount. Not socked at Lowe's, picked up locally from the distributer by the airport.

Cappuccino flavor.

On to the next mod.

My desk is so small and uncomfortable that I had to mount the PC to the wall so that I could have enough desk space. After a few weeks of this setup I've decided that enough is enough. I plan to expand the desk along the left wall to have both a computer area and reading/writing are for school. Here we go... weeee......

I actually did a simple sketchup rendering of the room back in December to help me visualize how I could make the best of the small space. The desk top will be white Corian to match the kitchen counter tops and the other cabinets in this common area upstairs. I plan on reusing the current desk's cabinets to save a little cash.

sans the wall and open the space up?

If I sans the wall I will end up with no master closet. Don't think the misses would be too happy with that. :crazy:

Here is a mock up of the new desk layout. Left side measures 7.5' long and the side along the window measures 5'. The depth of the desk will be 24" which allows me enough space to comfortably roll the chair back without hitting the side wall.

I may also have to trim the bottom of the cabinets an 1" or 2". The desk currently sits at 32.5" tall which is extremely uncomfortable to sit at.

I thought the same thing. My super slouch position while sitting in the chair and farting around on the computer is 53" from the wall to the back of the chair. My slide back, spin and step out of chair distance from the wall is 55". The space from left wall to right wall is 60" so I have just enough space to use this gigantic (to me) chair. 5" isn't much (that's what she said), but it will be a much more comfortable setup than I have now.
