Thanks,

wondering wheter laminated plywood can be made to be very glossy?

other than lateminated plywood, any more? slightly ex one?

The glass on the table is a passe but good idea.

it protects the laminate, if not all scratched and discolored in no time.

Yes it's quite old design already. My dad's table is like that and he has been using it for the past 25 years.

Problem with this is that you will leave a lot of hand and arm prints all over it.

Contract quoted me 1350 for this study table.

I thought a few hundreds can do already
