    Any free plans for building a chest of drawers

    I did see them but felt they looked very dated compared to the modern stuff... Will give them another read through assuming I can change the type of wood

    What screw do I need?

    The wall is a plaster board. I drilled a hole and there was nothing inside when I inserted my finger. There is a room next door so not sure if this narrows it down any further. The cupboard is custom built so I don't know if that adds more complexity.

    What screw do I need?

    There will be a foot gap from the ceiling if that helps? I can give your the entire measurement of the wall if that's any easier? Sorry I'm not a DIY guy and just learning this stuff from forums and YouTube.....I have no idea what you mean by timber batten to wall?

    New guy attempting to build a modern looking desk

    I've never done much in woodworking but don't mind giving it a go. I would like to build a desk (might be wall mountable) but I don't know what kind of wood I might need? I think ply wood and then get some iron on material to give it a bit more of a posh look? Could anyone give me some advise...
