I wanted to share this with you guys, since I post in this forum category the most. My buddy and I spent the last few months designing + working on a desk and three shelves. Everything was built out of oak plywood. I'm really excited to start editing model sessions soon with this new setup! :thumb

    I love that beer plays an integral part in the process... rolleyes1.gif

    Looks really good. Shouldn't the beer and rum be on a lower shelf a little more easily accessable :)

    @Michael, Is that AA plywood? My house has oak floors (downstairs), an oak staircase and oak trim. I love the look of oak. clap.gif

    If they were bottles full of alcohol, it would be a sin to leave em up there! rolleyes1.gif

    Hey! It's hard to produce work hammered. I practice so in the event that I'm sober, I'll be that much more efficient thumb.gif (I think I convinced all of Dgrin that I'm an alcoholic XD)

    As for the plywood, I believe it was AA. It was one of the more expensive grades of oak plywood you could buy.

    Oh man, I wish I had the funds. Currently running a 2008 MBP. My OS is so out of date, I can't even run the newest LR4..sigh.

    I still remember my first experience with a retina display screen. I second shot for my buddy Brandon for the first time. He is really good, so I made sure I was on my A-game at that wedding. He goes to load off his pictures, and I couldn't believe how amazing the quality was on the screen. I got nervous when he uploaded mine, because I thought they wouldn't look nearly as vibrant. And boy was I wrong! I was drooling over the difference in quality.

    Yeah, I thought my focus was all goofy, but the pics on the new Mac really surprised me.

    Beautiful! Wish I had the space for a workstation like that. Would love to get off the couch...
