Computer desk cubby hole shelving
I'm looking for my dropped pen, and I said "There it is!", Well it echoed, so Hershel and I went to Lowe's, got some angle aluminum, Two shelves and filled that echo chamber.
Sue suggested I put my toolbox under there, as she was a little tired of tripping over it when she makes the bed.
I slapped 3 coats of varnish on the slide out shelf, so I am pretty well done with this corner of the Monte. 
Oh, I found out after I cut the shelves that,(as Rich says), the old world craftsmen didn't make the cubby hole square, so my shelf is a little short, but-only on one end  ..........
I tool Ozzie's suggestion and raised my printer. I don't like the ugly plastic, so may do something about that some day.

There you go...getting that unused space utilized.  It looks great!
...and I was thinking you would be putting the printer down there...any chance it would fit on that top shelf?
It looks like a great place to just reach under and grab it coming out.
Everyone's needs vary of course, maybe you need better access with your printer.

Rich,
I'm with you! I thought we were headed to AZ for fun and relaxation, but all of these neat mods that Ozz has come up with are gonna keep me busy for at least a month after we get there.

Ozzie, if the printer wasn't there, I would just have something else stacked where it is....
Besides, I get so excited, I read stuff as it's coming out on the printer tray!!!

LOL...and with those new fancy printers that take memory cards direct and print photos things just aren't the same anymore.
It sounds like you guys are going to have some fun down there...make sure to send some warm to the rest of us working folks up here in the snow...

I installed a small drawer under our computer desk for pencils, paper, etc. Unfortunately, the drawer opened on a trip and the Trailer Life directory was launched from the above storage. Dead hit on the drawer--knocked it off and I have yet to "re-intall" it. Something to do this winter if we ever get back to the stick house long enough. It looked really good for a few trips.

Looks great. Got to do that plus you just gave me an idea for the shelves we are putting in the pantry.
Happy trails.................
