I need some quick design suggestions for a strong and cheap as fuck 1300x800 desk, I need have 4 built by this time tomorrow for hopefully less then $100 AUD with an absolute max of $200.

> 1300x800
Means nothing without units.

Considering that is a fairly standard desk size and I referred to AUD I thought the average persons deduction skills would figure it out, but in case you didn't its mm that I am referring to.
>>
Does it need to be 1300? Will 1200 do? I only ask because ply will be your cheapest option, but it comes in 1200 or 2400 length. If you can get away with 1200 then you can make two desks per one sheet of ply.

How stable do these tables nee dto be? Are they for display or working on?

Lrn2logicalDeduction you idiot. Do you genuinely think he means 1300 meters by 800 meters or something?
>>
>>933910
1200 is a fine compromise however i was thinking of yellow tongue as its $42 for 3600x900

They will be for a software company garage start up, so for computers, but I would still like some stability.

Thinking of a piss pine box frame although don't know the best layout for it.
>>
I think I am good on the desk top wood but are any suggestions for a cheaper wood I can use for the frame?
>>

Buy some god damn trestle tables
Much better than whatever shit you can throw together out of plywood and logs in your backyard

For some reason I didn't even think of this, maybe I'll do it, price is good and its easy but those things are flimsy as fuck, i would rather spend 30% more and and arvo making the same thing but 4 times as strong I think.

Back in high school we would use those at lans with the typical heavy shit on top and the screaming and table banging.
They're plenty stable, with lots of surface, and will look better than raw ply.

> Buy
Just hire some. Throw "party table hire [your state]" and see who you can find.
