Laptop writing desk

A number of year ago...I made this laptop writing desk for our neighbors high school aged daughter.  I had wanted to build one just because I had never done one and there were simple elements of the build that I wanted to try.  So, I killed two birds with one stone with the project.  If I have any regrets about the project, it's that it is a little heavy since all of the components are 3/4" thick and I could have gone thinner and still maintained good overall structural integrity, but hey, you never stop learning and becoming a better woodworker, so it served a purpose.  I like it...I think it came out nice and I like the simple design.  I hadn't taken a picture of it back when I built it.  I document all of my projects with pictures and I never got one of this one.  I have wanted to approach the neighbor about getting a picture of it, but I just never got around to it.  Today, coming in from picking up the mail...I saw the neighbor in the yard and asked about it.  Simple as that.
