How to Order a Custom Solid Wood Tabletop from My-Desk.Co

Your guide to getting the perfect fit, finish, and feel.

If you’re ready to elevate your workspace with a solid wood tabletop tailored to your space, you’re in the right place. At My-Desk.Co, we make it easy to turn your vision into a beautiful, functional centerpiece for work, creativity, or play.

This quick guide will walk you through everything you need to know — from measuring your space to choosing finishes, edges, and accessories.

📏 Step 1: Measuring Your Space

Before customizing, it’s important to get accurate measurements. Here’s how:

• Measure length and depth in centimetres

• Account for any walls, baseboards, or obstructions

• Leave at least a 1cm gap around the tabletop for movement and cable clearance

If you’re building wall-to-wall, we recommend our onsite measurement service to ensure the perfect fit.

📐 Size Guide

We offer a wide range of tabletop sizes, grouped for easy reference:

• X-Small: < 150cm

• Small: < 150cm

• Medium: < 180cm

• Large: < 230cm

• Extra Large: < 280cm

• XL Plus: < 330cm

• Oversize: < 380cm

✨ Step 3: Customize Your Edges & Corners

Your tabletop edge says a lot about the overall look. Choose from:

• Straight edge – clean and modern

• Chamfer edge – angled, subtle detailing

• Radius edge – smooth and child-safe

You can also select how the corners are finished — for style and safety:

• Straight blunt corners for a modern, minimal look

• Rounded radius corners for a softer, more family-friendly finish
