+Summary:
+ Build a simple but useful standing desk by hacking some furniture.
+
+### Background
+
+My father is good at DIY stuff. He's really good. I've seen him drawing,
+designing and making things since I was a child.
+
+Further than the dozens of tons of DIY books that can be found at my parent's
+house, my father had no specific training on crafts. He's a lawyer, he finished
+his studies at almost 60 and he never worked as a lawyer and he probably won't
+because he's retired now.
+
+Maybe because of him my sister and I love making stuff and probably thanks to
+my mother's math skills now we are both engineers. We both have been trained on
+how to design and how to create stuff in a controlled way which is the part I
+like the most and the part that conforms the biggest portion of my job at ElenQ
+Technology.
+
+Since I moved out from my parent's I don't have tools to make a project like
+this, neither the workspace to make it, so I needed my father's DIY skills and
+his almost pathological tendency to collect tools and materials. I wanted to
+make it by myself at the beginning but I was busy and he is retired so...
+Perfect match.
