I am planning a built-in desk, plywood (3/4") with a plastic laminated top and solid wood edging. The top will be fully supported along the back and one side, and one leg to support the open side. The dimensions are rougly 33" x 84". I have seen other discusions here about plywood bending and support requirements(ribs,) but not for this case, where it is fully unsupported along only one edge (a long one.) With minimal weight requirements(I don't plan on putting any lead curios on the desk,) will I see much bending in a typical sheet of plywood? Any help much appreciated. Barry
