Back to the lap desk

Today I went back to working on the shaker lap desk.  The coop is complete and the birds are getting big so it was a good thing I finished it when I did.

Back to the lap desk.  I sanded the body and cut and sanded the bottom.  The bottom is made out of quarter sawn white pine.  Tomorrow I making a modern plywood table for the show " The Garage"  so the desk will be put on hold once again.  The tape on the bottom acts as a marker and lets me know where to position the body to the base.
