4 Several of you noted that the drawer in the desks only took advantage of about 1/3 of the storage space that it could have. I originally intended for a larger drawer, but the tabletop needed extra reinforcement, so ended up downsizing the drawer for structural reasons. So why not have a flip top? You guys are too smart. Not only does this increase the storage by quite a bit - but this design is easy to build and less expensive. Too good not to do a plan for you. Just in case you missed the video for this project, here it is - And the plans follow for the flip up desk. Page 4 of 15
