Free Writing Desk plans - Eliminate clutter by building a mission style writing desk with free plans. The desk shown in the illustration was made of plain-sawed white oak. The copper lighting fixtures were made by the amateur as were the hinges and the drawer pulls. The doors are fitted with art-glass panels. Square the legs to length and lay out and cut the [39] mortises thereon. Lay off the tenons on the rails, after having squared the rails to length and width, and cut them. Work up the top of the table and then the drawer stock and cabinet. Assemble the ends of the frame first, using good hot glue and enough clamps to hold the parts together properly. After the glue has hardened on these, the clamps may be removed and the front, back rails and the stretcher assembled.
