What’s the top?
When I endorsed 2x1 I didn’t realise you were doing a frame with it, though it was just battens on the wall…

I don't think 75cm is too deep at all. Enough space to spread out plans, photographs, flow-charts, etc without constantly having to "move stuff".

Intersting, I am still thinking of doing this as I have a big sheet of 18mm birch ply in the garage - how are you planning on getting cables to the top?

Gonna be good !! - that front rail (and the front to back ones for that matter) aren’t doing a whole lot in terms of limiting flex - I would think . But if you glue and screw the front rail to your desk-top from the underside (pocket hole jig would be ideal - or little tiny metal corner brackets) then it’s stiffness is acting on the front edge of the desktop as a beam - to limit flex. I did this over 1700 mm - doesn’t flex even with the weight of a 10yo . So you might even get away without a middle leg.

Building a big desk, may have gone too big. Think it’s about 6cm too deep (currently 75cm deep). Would it be madness to try and trim with jigsaw?
