Industrial Style Computer Desk - Forme Industrious 

The 55 people that gave this a thumbs down clearly don’t have a clue. This is true craftsmanship and I hope more folks get inspired to work with their hands because of you; Scott. 1000 thumbs up from me!

Hi folks, this is Max: client, desk jockey, nit-picker, CAD modeler, feature-creeper, and co-designer of this wonderful contraption. Not to wax poetic, but I think there comes a time in every man's life when he realizes he needs a new desk and hires a complete stranger on RU-vid halfway around the world to make him a new one (well, Scott may be the exception, here--he would probably just build his own desk--though I believe he buys his pants from a different channel). What I'm trying to say here is thank you, Scott. When I say that this is the desk of my dreams, I mean that I literally intend to do most of my sleeping at it from here on out. All meals are of course a given. And someday, when my children ask about the desk they were conceived on top of, I will share this video with them and we will gaze in wonder at the skill, dedication, beer and colorful language that went into its construction. To all the people asking in the comments if the client is a rich guy: give us a break, it's a desk, not a DeLorean. Oh hey, that gives me an idea for a desk! Scott, can we--eh, never mind. Next time. I think a few people were asking to see what the desk looks like once it's all rigged up; fair enough. I will try to put together a video of my own showcasing it in its full glory before it disappears under a mound of pizza boxes and Diet Coke cans. And to those of you providing insightful, constructive criticism and suggestions: you are wrong. The desk is perfect, and you should know better. Just kiddin'. You guys are great. You may have a point about the casters, and it's too bad The Hatch didn't come together, and now that you mention it we probably SHOULD have found room for a rotisserie grill, but these are all issues that I will work out with Scott for Desk 3.0 sometime next year, or as soon as he stops blocking my calls. Scott is the real deal, guys. He had a great attitude throughout, was always upbeat, and put up with me even at full deskzilla. A true pro. This desk is a one of a kind and must never fall into the wrong hands, but if you're in the market for something nearly as nice, I think you owe it to yourself to drop him a line. Thanks again, Scott!

OMG!what a beautiful piece of furniture. A very precise and intricate piece of art. I cannot believe how much time, effort and skill went into creating this and I live with you. You amaze me with every piece of furniture that you build. I know this is a bit bias but you are an amazing talented artist & I’m lucky you are my husband. Well done!

I'm in the planning stage of a combined wooden computer cupboard with built in computer and monitor. Things like this on You Tube inspire me to look at extra idea's. I'm a noob at woodworking but i'm happy to lose a few bits of timber to get my dream case. What you built is awesome and will last for decades due to workmanship. i love it.

Hey Scott, believe me it's not a problem sticking around to watch any of your videos, very nicely done

I've been building things professionally for over thirty years. I bow to your impressive skills. Beautiful design and craftsmanship.

You best have your hands insured because they are the ultimate tools to own. You are such a fine craftsman, your projects are so unique and the filming and editing makes watching you create an added pleasure. As always, keep doing what you doing 👍🏻👌🏼

What a wondrous, gorgeous project fit for a king! I hope your client loved this result as much as I do. Thank you so very much for it, and congratulations!

Art that'd survive a nuclear strike. Beautiful attention to detail, Much respect

Another awesome Piece of furniture Scott I bet Max was ecstatic when he recieved it.

Really fantastic. The superlatives must be worn out by now. Beautiful and inspiring. The work and collaboration remind of Michael Pollan's book "A Place of My Own". where he designs and builds a small studio of a building, with much intention and thoughtful engagement. The only difference, at least in the abstract sense, is that he subtitles the book "The Education of an Amateur Builder". There is nothing amateur about this desk and its design and construction. It's the work of a mature artisan. Thank you for sharing it and the collaboration in design.

Wish I could do more than 1 thumbs up... a fantastic piece of engineering/furniture making/hard work and eye for detail.

You can break your tack welds apart with your hands?!! Well I can break ALL my welds apart with my hands! Huh! Who's the tough guy now huh! I always learn things off you - like don't pick up hot bits of metal. You remember my first welding attempts? Well I actually did a bit more just last weekend - my second ever welding project. I just love arc welding because as long as I stick with it I can comfort myself with the thought that if I only had a mig welder - I'd be awesome 😆 Two wireless chargers .. that's class. Mate! That's not the only thing that's class ... phew! where to begin! Rated 100 hots!! 💯🔥 cheers!

Everything you do deserves two thumbs up.

This is what true craftsmanship looks like... Great Piece!

Да метал и дерево Это просто чудо Спасибо за труд Для тебя только уважение

LOVE this project! I liked seeing how you used your drill press as a mill.

The base reminds me of an industrial sewing table- in a good way!

Scott Turner you are a legend ,making such quality in such a small shed WELL DONE

Forme Industrious elevating art. Transcendent; I lost count early on of the infinate bespoke talents of a master builder, fascinating to watch!

A spectacular piece of art. I would build a room around that desk.

I haven't heard that Icehouse song in ages. Good music!

Dead set bloody legendary build again mate. On another note, I finally worked out why you used Forme as the name. Makes perfect sense as you weren't happy with the daily grind and decided to do something that you wanted and loved to do.. "For Me" very clever.. Cheers

I'm amazed at the amount of time and workmanship that went into this build. Well done!!

Wow!!!! Watch out jimmy Diresta!!!!! Simply amazing. We were only at the welding part and my son says “dad we could never do that.” 😂. Good job sir

it was incredibly awesome !

G’day Scott, I cannot say anything else apart from bloody brilliant Project mate, a very time consuming endeavour that is a one off unique build, I hope that your client loves it as much as your audience enjoys seeing you build it, cheers 🍻👍

Потрясающе! Аплодисменты великому мастеру синей стали!

Wow, those table legs look like they were made from one piece sheet steel. The whole thing is a work of art. Brilliant

A thumbs up if we "think it deserves it"? That for me is one of the best (if not the BEST) videos/projects I've seen yet from any Maker! I just wish I wasn't a trillion miles away so I could stop by and shake your hand. Amazing work Scott! Thank you! I'm actually working on my computer desk today (and yesterday and tomorrow I'm sure). You've raised the bar and I needed that!

Just tremendous. What an inspiring build. I’m going to brush up on my welding skills now. My favorite video yet too, btw. Thx for the explanation and commentary. Wishing you continued success.

You like alot of hand work in youre projects , respect !! You make realy Hand Made items :)

Have you ever tried heating the steel with the torch as a finish? The oxide that forms gives it a nice blueish uniform color. Kinda blends the areas that have been welded and grinded in with the rest. Apply a bit of linseed oil to it prior to heating, and it will end up with a more charred and darker color (and some rust prevention). /cheers

If anyone asks why the end user spent 20 grand on a computer desk, just show them this video. Not crazy about tubular steel with the curved form of the support legs but that's what makes the world go around. Kudos to Scott Turner for his skills and all it took to acquire them.

Real Quality in design and execution. Built for manufacture, relocation and for long enjoyment beyond one lifetime. Impressive!

Отличная работа👍 Как и всегда

Судя по мастерской,всё как у настоящего мужика,инструмента завались,на все случаи жизни,и руки что надо.

beautiful job, best 29 minutes and 14 seconds I ever spent ignoring my wife.

Scott you are constantly an inspiration for me. You are a true craftsman.

"LIFE GOT IN THE WAY".......is the under statement of the ages! You still came through Scott and that is what matters! Incredible work as always!

Просто великолепно , превосходно и восхитительно , действительно нет слов. Браво . Сам мебельщик , но такого не встречал . Спасибо за идею , ) Из РФ с любовью )

That is awesome! How in hell did this get any down votes?

Is it plagiarizing if I tell you I'm going to copy it first? 😁 I bet your client jumped out of his chair every time he heard the delivery truck driving down the street! One of a kind awesomeness, as always!

Oh yeah...Icehouse, Man of Colours - great work

Scott, this was a outstanding piece of craftmanship and skill in this build, yet alone the artistry in the finished product. I bet you had to change your phone # from all the request from all the "Desk Jockeys" that wanted one also, especially in these pandemic times were in. Accolades are to be commended to you Scott. As for everyone else out there, myself included, Scott has set the bar for us, it's time we all picked our game up and get to it and build one of ourselves at this level or better. Scott, thanks for sharing. David 👍👍👍👍

my wife: -what r u doing mate? me: -watch my favourite maker new video. -the crazy Italian (DIRESTA)?? -Nop -the swiss guy with OCD (my mechanics)? -Nop XD. -the handsome guy on that tiny garage( ZH fabrications)? -NO😒 -Ahhh the australian guy !!!!??? -hell yeah😝

Beautiful design and workmanship. Penitrol is your final finish coat for the metal?

What can I say but, that was a fantastic job. Almost entirely made from scratch. The only exceptions are the casters and the drawer slide. Again, a big WOW on that one.

Exquisites craftsmanship. I have to think this is a $15K desk job. Outstanding!

Inspiring work. Diresta got me started on making my own furniture. He's since become a bit dormant. Your videos are filling my inspirational-maker-video gap. I aspire to be like you one day. All I'm missing is a mini-lathe, a CNC router and a butt-load of creativity.

Amazing work! This is how a DIY video is done. Faster, simpler, showing all with no BS talk. Very well done Mr. Scott.

Gorgeous piece of functional furniture.

That walnut is gorgeous. The entire build is out of this world. I couldn't stop watching, much less you thanking me for staying! Incredible build.

Скотт отличная работа! И не кажется тяжелой ! Впрочем как всегда. Мне нравится этот стиль! Удачи и новых идей!

And here I was feeling pretty chuffed about building a basic workbench out of 2x4. Thanks, RU-vid, for pointing me to someone who actually knows what they are doing!

always a joy to watch him

you are doing a remarkable job, I like the mixture of steel and wood. Frankly, nothing to do with anything that can be found on the market today. Sincerely, Herve

Absolutely wonderful. You have made a desk that will be enjoyed and appreciated for a century or more. A true craftsman.

WOW... I admire your creativity. Well done.

As beautiful as it is functional! Delightful to watch over and over. My second visit. Happy Holidays to you and your family!

You ARE a Man of Colours Scott 4:06

Hi Scott. It is just a joy and pleasure to watch you create your art from raw materials. My sincere thanks for taking the time and trouble to make the video and publish it. You are up on the top shelf of must-watch video's, and I always look forward in anticipation to your next project. All the best Scott to you and the family. Keep up the outstanding work. All the best from North London UK.

I just wanted to write a follow up to my previous comment, was hesitant about writing it earlier (dunno why, silly really) but having just watched your 100k vid swayed me.... I have just discovered your channel so this vid is the first I watched and it really has impacted me. I watched this just before I went to bed and I couldn't get to sleep (not a lot stops me doing that). I was just so excited. I'm convinced, now more than ever, that making is something that needs to be in my life. How much of my life remains to be seen so we'll see, but it's going to be a fair proportion.😁

Awesome! Speachless! Great job Scott

Scott, wow just um wow! It's beautiful. Your attention to every detail you don't miss a trick. The ingenuity to turn this into a flat pack brings new meaning to thinking ahead. If you ever get stuck for inspiration just refer to this video (or infact any other video you've uploaded they're all awesome) and tell yourself you made that. Great work Scott God bless.

You have a nice sense of industrial and elegance in your builds. A rare artistic talent, thank you very much for sharing it with us all.

Mr. Turner, you have found your calling. I'm not sure how easy it is to eek out a living making beautiful things like this, but I truly hope that you can continue to inspire the world with your work. With the months and years it takes to design, acquire materials, create and assemble, all while diligently maintaining a channel dedicated to showcasing the same... Well I just can't thank you enough. It is not hyperbole to say we live in a world where we're all dying to get the latest junk from China, only to discard it with such carelessness that it now begins to clog, ferment and disrupt the natural systems of God's pure oceans. You, sir, are doing your part to show us _all_ a different way by methodically building items so cherished, that their care is assured for generations. Thank you.

Scott you blow my mind I can’t explain how much I enjoy watching you fabricate your videos are so well done keep doing what you’re doing you are one hell of a artist thank you Glenn .

I started watching this as I started my breakfast ....... I now have a cold cup of tea and cold spicy pork. Never mind it was worth it watching this master class. Well done.

Large-scale work - good work !!!

Beautiful. Excellent attention to detail.

Didn't plan on watching the whole video, but couldn't stop watching, amazingly talented!

So beautiful, great job. Wood, steel, and electronics plus all the other little tricks. I enjoyed the vid.

Sir every time I watch your videos I am both impressed and educated! Thank you!

I'll preface this with the fact that I don't like desks that tiny, but... your desk looks good enough to eat. Beautiful, just beautiful.

Another beautiful piece Scott 🤠👍

Such a privilege to see construction of a unique piece of work from the ground up. All credit to you, I dream of having half your skills. But as you say the far and wide reach of the web is truly amazing. If nothing it has certainly inspired me to actually get off my arse and do something with mine. Incredibly high quality items meticulously crafted with only one objective in mind to surpass your customers expectations.... a very lucky chap. Keep up the great work!

Stunning work, true craftsmanship !

It's always a pleasure to watch a craftsman at work!

At first, I thought you were making the desk from an old singer sewing machine stand only to realise you actually made it. WOW! that was a fantastic GREAT job, keep up the good work...

Hello Scott, once again a really nice job. I could watch you for hours. (Well, I'll do that already 😉) Thank you, that we were allowed to visit you again. Craftsmen greetings from Germany

Holy Cow Scott! If I hadn't just watched you build this thing I wouldn't have thought this could be built by just one guy in a shop. I have so much respect for you. Excellent job.

Another breath taking video, thank you. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I love how you took the idea of a dirt common computer desk, the likes of which you can buy at Target or Wal Mart, and turned it into art.

You do great work Mr. Turner thank you for your time😊

Beautiful attention to details

Love your videos, wish you made them more often.

Hi Scott I am in the uk I think it should be in a museum so every can see it’s a masterpiece What a fantastic piece of furniture your a master craftsman your video was a pleasure to watch all the best can not wait for the next one kind regards David

The way the desk is designed it looks like it should transform into something, perhaps an even more elaborate desk, perhaps a briefcase, it just has this look about it that it's about to do something weirdly mechanical and unexpected. But no, it's just a really nice desk with a slidey bit. Fantastic work, as always, a joy to watch.

Well done mate, absolutely beautifully made.

Scott, this desk is a true work of art! Fantastic job. Anybody would be proud to own something similar. Thanks to you and Max for sharing the adventure.

You are an artist and a craftsman, sir.

The stuff of dreams. I love the industrial look in my furniture, well , anything really, and I must say that as soon as I saw the thumbnail, I was already blown away.... Simply beautiful. Well done Max for creating it in your mind, and for Scott in making it come to life... wish I had that...

Can't think of a reason that I would need a desk like this, I've got no need for one at all. But this is one of those items that you just want, and would be proud to have in your home. Beautiful Job.

Just amazing, beautiful work as always, sir!

from uruguay my respect!! ive follow you for a while now!! your jobs are just amazing!!!

As always an excellent build, inspirational and entertaining. Thanks for sharing

Just beautiful craftsmanship. Very high quality materials

Brilliant job , well done. More please

Beautiful craftsmanship and beautiful furniture
