Finished!

The new desk is finally done! I chose to stain it in a nice darker cherry wood color to continue with the warm wood/reds i've got going on in my studio room. I also added the keyboard tray, and then did a few coats of a semi-gloss lacquer which you can see in the pics below. Gives the desk a nice sheen without being overbearing. I'm very pleased with the results. The only thing i've not done is figured out what i'm going to do on either side of the rack units underneath.

I wanted to put a computer housing bay/door on the right side to isolate computer noise but i'm getting kind of lazy now, and the PC im building won't be that loud to begin with hopefully since it will have its own acoustically deadened case so it may not even be necessary. For the other side I was thinking shelves or drawers? Or I might just leave it open as future rack spaces since the ID is also 19"! Anyways, see the pics below of the desk with some of my rack equipment mounted in, including my nice new ART power distributor and ART Headamp6 headphone distributor! I love the ART stuff, such great equipment for the price, and their customer service is superb.
