So I've been a bit quiet of late, I wanted to have a bit more done for this update but it might be a week or so until I can get the rest done so it seemed like a good point to stop and post some pictures :)

Here's where we left off, I was about half way through the leg pieces, they had incomplete uprights and no end caps.

And then on with the new stuff :)

Finishing up the leg attachment bars

Right, back to the frame finished up the small angled sections so I could mount the panels to them...

That's all for now as far as the desk goes :) The screws holding the usbs and DVD drive are just ones I found that fit, I'm waiting on the new ones that match the rest of the desk :)

Should be getting my replacement blocks from EK this week and I think I've found the colour I want to paint the frame... the panels will be black powder coat so mat black.

I was doing some climbing at an indoor wall a week or so ago and spotted a water bottle lying about... a red sigg bottle to be a bit more precise.

So what do you all think about...
