No computers in 1870? No problem.

Well then...sort of a milestone, the computer desk is now done. It took a little figuring but now the computer, the modem, and all the wiring are hidden from view. The shelf it rests on is supported by a rubber caster and though it may not have been strictly necessary I like the idea of the added support. All the wires are coiled up and contained in a pocket behind the door itself and the modems are velcroed to the top of the case so I can see the status lights should the internet start acting wonky like it does from time to time.

But what about the monitor you ask? There were no CRT's or LED,s or plasma displays in Victorian times. You are so right my suddenly astute history buff. Have no fear the monitor will be hidden as well perhaps as an objet d'art as Jules would have said. That's next.

Note the finished plans holder and oh yes and check out the cool magazine holders. Don't they look neat? They are great. If you watch the movie most of the books in Nemo's library are red leather bound so they fit in so nicely and all my modeling magazines will be handy. As another small project I will be hiding my PC speakers on the upper shelf of the storage area and have decided (at some point) to display a 16" inch scale version of the Disney Nautilus submarine on top to kind of sell the whole 20,000 Leagues thing a bit.

I know many many of you base your lives around my room updates so be warned I am going to be slacking off as warm weather approaches. Things like yard work, holidays, family events and vacations are going to be taking up more of my time but never fear I will continue posting--just at a slower pace.
