Hello Noel, i would be happy to provide you with an offer for your idea…if I may ask what is it that you're going for?

Noel 08 Dec 2020 12:35 pm
Hey Paul.
I've attached my preferred design and color on my initial request. Kindly check. Also id it possible to get this done before Christmas?
Regards
Noel
Paul Kiarie 08 Dec 2020 8:00 pm
Hello Noel, would you be referring to the desk and chair only or also the printer stand underneath?…that would be done within just a week however I'm not able to make the swivel chair but i am able to make a wooden one if you choose…alternatively you could get a black chair of the same design and reupholster it with white material although I'm not positive about the end result…as for the desk legs we can go with slightly thicker ones for more strength since the ones in the image are metallic…i have attached a sketch for your review and quoted for the printer stand as well but not the chair…
Noel 09 Dec 2020 11:40 am
Hey Paul,
I'd like the desk and chair. As for the printer stand a shelf attached to the desk would be a better alternative. For the chair I want something comfortable as I work mostly from home. I would be happy to try out the chair and see how it turns out. 50 inches is too big kindly make it 107cm. I find your quote too high, is it possible to reduce it? If you have better designs and suggestions, send them my way. I'll appreciate.
Paul Kiarie 09 Dec 2020 6:12 pm
Hello Noela…the desk image you provided looks really nice and I'm excited to get started and yes it's possible to reduce the quote if we remove the printer stand and it'll cost 12,500ksh however this cost is only for the desk without the chair and since the chair in the image you provided is a swivel chair it's a mass manufactured item which I'm unable to make because it's machined metal and plastic and leather assembled together which is why i suggested that you could buy the chair from a retailer of which i think the cost is 5000ksh…the desk alone will cost 12,500ksh but i have attached the image of another desk you might like but since it requires slightly more materials and labor the quote may go higher…the cost is taken up by the delivery charges which i estimated based on Sendy's app and the other charges excluded out of the materials, labour, and delivery such as VAT, handling charges and acquisition costs
Noel 13 Dec 2020 8:00 am
Hey Paul
Let's stick to the initial design. If possible add an extra drawer or two on one side. I'll appreciate that.
Paul Kiarie 13 Dec 2020 1:19 pm
Hey Noel, sure that can be done but it'll require slightly more materials for the drawers…is that okay? Also if you could give me your preferred measurements then we can start as soon as possible
Noel 18 Dec 2020 9:36 am
Hey Paul
I thought we had already settled on the measuements?
107 cm by 42 cm. As for the rest, I live it to you. Kindly let's proceed.
Regards
Noel
Paul Kiarie 18 Dec 2020 3:34 pm
Hello Noel…yeah sure let's proceed
Noel 05 Jan 2021 10:08 am
