Sit-Stand Desktop Build Part 1

In this video I start a new build series where I construct a Greene and Greene inspired sit-stand desk using a commercially available electric adjustable desk frame by Flexispot.
Disclaimer: Flexispot provided me with their three-stage electric adjustable standing desk frame and in return they asked me to design a high-end desktop and document the build.

The desktop I designed is Cherry veneer with an MDF core. I wanted the desk to be rigidly attached to the frame, so I decided to veneer MDF to avoid any concerns with wood movement while still offering a solid wood look. The drawer gallery is made of solid Cherry with an upper and lower web frame, four drawers, a lower skirt, and sub-top. The drawer gallery top is also made of Cherry veneer with an MDF core to match the desktop. The inset between the skirt, web frame, sub-top, and drawer gallery top are designed to create a layered look with shadow lines synonymous with Greene and Greene style furniture. Alright, enough talk, let’s start building.

    Thank you for your great videos. I watched your M.O.A.T. video several times and ended up using much of your content to build an outfeed table for my shop. I use the heck out of it especially when cutting sheets of plywood. I am now very interested in the stand up desk and like your design. However, I did not find a "part 2" showing how you completed the drawer assemble. Did I miss it somewhere?

    Nice build but I thought the draw gallery was a tad too heavy for the size of the desk.

    MDF....really? I wouldn't consider MDF base = high end.

    I just found your channel. I really appreciate your step by step explanations and have only one critique for your health. Please wear a dust mask/respirator when cutting material, even if it's a "harmless" species. Your a still young in years and those microscopic particles can reach the smallest areas within your lungs, becoming a growth bed for bacteria. But on a higher note. Fantastic page!

    Where do you typically source the veneer? Excellent vlog BTW.

    Nice Job, Huy! If I don't have a vacuum press, would this still be possible with clamps and/or heavy items? Or do you think the veneer wouldn't hold well?
