This desk is 84" long and 30" wide; the L part extend out an additional 14" for a total with of 44". The top is a touch under 1.75" thick. I used steel c-channel to mitigate any future warping. The finish is 2 coats of amber shellac followed by 6 coats of matte waterbed polyurethane. The legs were purchased by the client from tablelegs.com.
