        Thank you Mirjman and Modelhead. So you need a SketchUp model of a drafting table? 😆

        Fortunately or unfortunately, I won't be building this. My client will.

          Nice. Is that a Borco cover I see on there?

            Beautiful job Dave! I love the storage for the extra legs. I'd love to have one of these, but haven't got a place to put it.

              Thank you. It is or else it's green laminate. 😉

              Cheffey, Thank you. I wish I had room, too.

                Looks good. Simple, yet very effective. I'd love to see this rendered.

                  Thanks Stinkie. Maybe when I get a few minutes to play, I'll try it. I want to see it rendered in wood. 😉

                  Here it is with the drawer pulls and plugs for the bed bolts.

                      I dunno about rendering it, that style suits a drafting table perfectly.

                        True, but I was thinking of a render without texture maps (some colors and reflection only), and a subtle SU line overlay. Nothing too photoreal.

                          Very nice.

                          Funny thing, though, my jaw about bounced off the floor when I saw it. That looks like the drafting tables we had in high school!

                          You brought back some fun memories.

                            ecofeco, glad to bring back a nice memory.

                            Stinkie, this may be too photo real but here is a quick render.

                              It's a good start, I'd say. 👍 Don't think you need the room, though. This seems to be one of those cases where less is more.
