The "Machinist" desk is a solid piece of American industrial iron with its heavy angular legs and solid wood top. The solid rivets and steel construction are reminiscent of early 1900 architecture and steel bridges.

A protective clear coat finish highlights the richness and durability of hot rolled steel. Natural mill scale, welds and grinder marks make each one unique in its own way.
Hot rolled steel has a very characteristic dark blue-grey mill scale oxide finish that is a result of the manufacturing process at the steel mill. The cooling process at the steel mill allows the metal to oxidize, producing a steel sheet that is blue-gray color towards the edges and dark gray towards the center. Similar to wood grain, marble or granite, each steel sheet is different.
Most of our cabinets include heavy duty levelers built-in into the feet. We also include self-adhesive felt pads for placing underneath to protect flooring and/or prevent scratches.
If casters can be installed they will be a selectable option via a pull down menu. The following options are available for most items. Casters are all heavy-duty with ratings of 700-800lbs each. Casters are also taller than the feet and will raise the cabinet higher off the ground.
Swivel Steel Caster
2-1/2" taller than feet (6-1/2" overall)
Rubber Swivel
2-1/2" taller than feet (6-1/2" overall)
Fixed Steel Caster
2-1/2" taller than feet (6-1/2" overall)
Low Profile Fixed Steel
1-1/2" taller than feet (5-1/2" overall)
Jose and I came up with this design from my experience in heavy industry and structural steel configurations I've seen. The white oak top is gorgeous. I love it, the quality and craftsmanship are what you would expect from a piece built to last a lifetime. I've commissioned several pieces of custom furniture from MIF and I'll keep buying more in the future.
