His books give you enough info. to get the job done, but you still have lots of figuring to do on your own. Glenns version of this desk was made of curly maple. I had a bunch of figured walnut that I had been sitting on for years, and knew the figure would look really good with the aniline dye and shellac finish.
Thanks,
Isaac
