Hi all,

I am looking for a rolltop desk. God knows there's a zillion of 'em, but I would like one that is only 36" wide. Anyone know where I can get one? Or, could anyone here build me on possibly? Nothing fancy, just a basic rolltop desk.

I'm a fairly good woodworker, but this is something I just can't build myself.

well, i found one that was an antique...it was almost $7,000.00. What, too expensive you say? Ok, basically what you want is a childs roll top, like here:
