Thomas Jefferson Writing DeskIn association with Fine Woodworking we offer this tutorial showing how to build your own Thomas Jefferson Writing Desk.Build a piece of history: the little writing desk Thomas Jefferson designed. It's a replica of the actual desk on which Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence in July, 1776. Designer and builder Lon Schleining had the great privilege to receive a grant from Taunton Press and a commission from the Smithsonian to build a replica of the desk for the Smithsonian's Castle Collection. |
