Never heard of it but we have restores in both Courtnay and Nanaimo. Do you know if this exists in BC?

Freecycle is popping up everywhere.

8ft+ built in desk built almost entirely of reStore materials. repurposed cupboard doors became keyboard trays, but we needed fairly specific drawer slides so we had to splurge. Oh, and we bought cord ports. We didn't think to look for them when we were at the reStore. So far we're ringing in at about $500 (the drawer slides being $80 of that) for a massive built in desk that looks (if I do say so myself) damn sharp.

Yes, that looks great. For a good price and the money goes to a good place as well. Win win win

That looks dynamite. Lots of homework going to happen there?

Tons of work will happen there alright. Both kids can sit down and crack the books. So handy.
