3.1. L-Shaped Desk Assembly

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all desk components from the packaging and lay them out on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches.
2. Attach Splayed Metal Legs: Securely fasten the splayed metal legs to the underside of the desktop sections using the provided hardware. Ensure all connections are tight.
