Workbench console turned desk

I modified the work bench console to make a standing desk.  I have a lot of textbooks so I made the desk 63 inches by 29 inches, using 1×6s instead of 2×4s.  I also added a drawer to the front, and eventually I'll finish a back lift up compartment for storage of firearms.  Since the desk is bigger I added a cross board in the legs for extra stability.  I also made the shelf a lot higher to store textbooks I wasn't using in the moment.  The way it's built I could use it as a console or bar table in the future.  The stain is miniwax dark walnut with a polyethlyene sealant.  Hope you like it!
