Our executive desk was built with specific needs in mind. We wanted a large desktop,
large drawers, and a cubbyhole to house a rollaway hanging file cabinet. We are thrilled with
our finished project. It’s a beauty.

Building the Desk Bases
1.
Cut eight short frames (A) from 2 x 4 pine, each measuring 23-1/4 inches long.
2.
Miter the ends of each of the eight short frames at opposing 45-degree angles, as shown in
Figure 1.
Figure 1
3.
Cut eight long frames (B) from 2 x 4 pine, each measuring 28 inches long.
4.
Miter the ends of each of the eight long frames (B) at opposing 45-degree angles, as shown
in Figure 1.
5.
Cut four sides (C) from 1/4-inch plywood, each measuring 24-1/4” x 28”.
6.
Place two long frames (B) on a level surface, parallel to each other and 21 inches apart, as
shown in Figure 2 . Place two short frames (A) between the ends of the long frames (B),
matching miters, to form a 23-1/4 x 28-inch rectangle. Apply glue to the meeting surfaces
and nail one side (C) over the four frames (A and B), as shown in Figure 3. Note that one
28-inch edge of the side (C) extends 1 inch past the frame assembly. Use 1-1/4-inch (3d)
finishing nails spaced every four inches.
7.
Repeat Step 6 three more times to assemble three additional frame assemblies, using the
3
108201082.042.png
remaining six short frames (A), six long frames (B) and three sides (C).
8.
Cut four back frames (D) from 1 x 4 pine,
each measuring 23 inches long.
9.
Place two frame assemblies on a level
surface, parallel to each other, and 21-1/2
inches apart. The 1-inch-wide side
extensions should be placed on top and to
the outside. Fit two back frames (D)
between the two sides (C) over the long
frames (B), as shown in Figure 4. Apply glue
to the meeting surfaces and screw through
the back frames (D) into the edges of the
long frames (B). Use two 1-1/2-inch screws
on each joint.
Figure 2
Figure 2
10. Repeat Step 9 to attach the
remaining two back frames (D)
to the remaining two frame
assemblies.
11. Cut two backs (E) from 1/4-inch
plywood, each measuring 23 x
28 inches.
Figure 3
12. Apply glue to the meeting
surfaces and place one back (E)
over the two back frames (D),
as shown in Figure 5. Nail
through the back (E) into both
back frames (D). Use five evenly
spaced 3/4-inch brads on each
edge of each back frame (D).
13. Repeat Step 12 to attach the remaining back (E) to the remaining base assembly.
Completing the Drawer Base Assembly
1.
As the photograph shows, the desk has two bases. The left base consists of two drawers
and the right base has just one hinged cabinet door. This section covers the completion of
4
108201082.043.png
the left drawer base assembly. However, some of the pieces used in the drawer base are also
used in the cabinet base. Remaining pieces cut but not used in this section should be labeled
and set aside for use in completing the cabinet base.
2.
Rip a total of 12 linear feet of 2 x 4 pine to a width of 1-3/4 inches.
3.
Cut six drawer
supports (F) from the
ripped 2 x 4 pine, each
measuring 23-1/4
inches long.
4.
Apply glue to the
meeting surfaces and
attach one drawer
support (F) to the left
side of one base
assembly, 8 inches
from the top of the
base assembly, as
shown in Figure 6 .
Make sure that the 1
3/4-inch dimension is
horizontal. Screw
through the drawer
support (F) into the
Figure 4
two long frames (B). Use two 2-1/2-inch screws on each joint.
5.
Repeat step 16 to install the second drawer support (F) opposite the first, on the right side
of the base assembly.
6.
Repeat steps 15 and 16 to attach the remaining two drawer supports (F) 3-1/2 inches from
the bottom of the base assembly.
7.
Install the purchased drawer glides on the inside edges of each of the drawer supports (F),
following the manufacturer’s directions. The drawer glides we purchased took up 1/2-inch
of horizontal space on each side. If your glides are not the same measurement, you will need
to alter the horizontal dimensions of the drawer to accommodate the difference.
8.
Cut four horizontal supports (G) from 2 x 4 pine, measuring 20 inches long.
9.
Attach one horizontal support (G) at the top front of the base assembly between the two
support frames, as shown in Figure 6 . Nail through the sides (C) into the end of the
5
