Build A Simple Modern Gaming Desk - Maple Plywood and Hairpin Legs
In this video, I'll show you how to make this modern looking gaming desk with Hairpin Legs and sleek back-cut edges.
I made this desk for my man Cameron, you can find him at / cameronwensz

This was my first time using Hairpin Style legs in a project. Overall, I'd say I liked them. It made this build go fast. I'm already looking forward to the next project I could use them on.
