I'm looking for a simple wooden desk like this -

but of course, something so simple is never easy to find. I found a thread with a few replies with desks that are similar https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/225120/

but of course, they are all custom made. Has anyone come across something online, in the same design, available for purchase?

I think they call that a kitchen/dining room table. 😛

Check with a Mennonite wood-worker.

Excellent work, simple design.

Use the chairs as firewood and you are set.

Nice, but somewhat wasteful. And small, for all the peripherals some people acquire.

I use a dining room table, which has 2 leaves. Only use one now, but if I need more real-estate in the future, I'm all set.

Oh, and the centre pedestal has 4 "feet", the front two of which make a nice foot-rest. And a shelf support across the back two for my UPS/modem. Keeps them off the floor.
