Nice. How do you make holes so precisely? Do you have a machine for that? I am doing it with very basic tools...

A cheapo drill press from Harbor Freight. I use graph paper for layout.
tape it over the wood and then use a nail to dimple where I want holes.
I use Forstner bits so I can drill nearly thru the wood without going thru.

Here is another shot.

And the final one of my computer desk/vape station.

I used flooring samples from Lowes to make all of those. Cost under $10 for all the samples. They are Bamboo.

Pre marking the holes with a dimple to start the drill bit is the most important thing for a nice layout.
