Repurposed Upright Piano - DESK!

What do you do with a gorgeous piano that destined for the burn pile? Turn it into a desk!
I saw this piano advertised on craigslist for free, and the owner said that it would be burned if no one took it. My friend and I drove over an hour with her enclosed trailer to rescue this beauty.
Then, I took it apart and gave it a new life. I un-assembled (is that a word?) pieces and parts and then cut a desk top from oak plywood.
The end result was truly amazing! You can still see a lot of the inner workings and it is clear that it was a piano, but it now has updated functionality for today's homes!
Enjoyed the project?
