Chestnut Desk | S8 E6 *

Another piece found in a private collection in wine country, this elegantly simple desk has an expansive surface, a single center pencil drawer and nicely turned legs. The original was made of pine, but for his version, Norm uses a harder chestnut that is better for writing surfaces. As straightforward and unpretentious as the best American antiques - or wines this desk can easily double as a table. Trivia: This is Russ's office desk just upstairs. * This was a lost episode not seen since it aired on TV Season: 8 | Episode: 6 Original Air Date: February 10, 1996 To purchase the measured drawing: https://www.newyankee.com/episode/chestnut-desk/ Visit our website at: https://www.newyankee.com _The New Yankee Workshop_ is a co-production of Morash Associates, Inc. and WGBH Boston #NewYankeeWorkshop #NormAbram #woodworking #howto
