My husband built me a custom desk for my jewelry workstation. It is made entirely out of birch plywood and was constructed without plans or templates (he's like that). It has a pull-out tray in the middle for my sorted rocks and the drawers slide on Teflon tape. The drawers also have dividers to hold my trays of beads and the desk is wired with electrical outlets for my Dremel tool.
For the drawer handles, I used stones from my favorite beaches. To do this, I bought regular wooden knobs at the hardware store and cut off the stems with a band saw.
I glued the rocks on to the wooden stems with Systems Three Epoxy and then used C-clamps to hold the assembly tight.
