A friend gave me a 1950's solid oak desk-she was down sizing-it measures 6ft x 3ft. It took 4 guys to move it. My brother wanted to cut it to set the machine flush and I just could not let him cut into that beautiful wood. I love it the way it is. It has 3 drawers along the top and a cabinet on both sides. I keep my rotary's-scissors and seam ripper in the middle I now know where they are at all times. And I have 2 plastic bowls to put straight and safety pins in so no more pins on the floor to step on.
