DIY computer table, Giant + Ikea

[DiscMan]

Neat discman. What's that juggernaut mat you have there?

Yah. it's the Barracuda Juggernaut. Got it at Tech Drome at SLS last month i think.

This is how my setup looks like before i got the stand

The juggernaut feel is still ok. but i think the prob is it will attract dust too.. previously i was using hard surface. very easy to maintain, dirty jus wipe with wet cloth can liao. This one got to be careful and dont get dirty or water in the first place.

Finally done!





Here is how the table mounted, no screws, no nails.

 

[mike911]

dont mine me asking, but can sit properly infront of the desk?

or else the hands will be like stretching.

 

[coyote]

I adjusted the height such that the table is exactly same height as any computer table. So, it's just nice.

ah i see, thats nice =)
that cm 360 position is good also.

Then leg can rest at the bottom?

 

[coyote]

Yup. The bottom rack is perfect for leg rest & for sub-woofer, for those who has one.

[Felfirez]

The holes for the legs are totally at the edge, maybe even going out of the table top from what I can see. Is it stable?

that is swee
Great effort done.

I jus completed my setup based on your idea


i've used 6 captiva legs instead of 4 cos I worried the shelf is too long and may warp.

Here is the end result

Swee ar! I like your setup!

Clamps to any side of the table. act as a shelving. Buy some extra desk space for non-heavy stuff.
It is very easy to install.

Up for more DIY ideas.

Nice !

Is there a computer chair thread around here somewhere? Most crucial element of the desktop setup. Haha.

 

[trenzterra]

Computer chair I think those wire mesh one are good for the back (if you get a good one). Currently using one (bought for abt $300) which is quite good, though I'm not sure where to get cos my mum ordered from those specialised shops.

As for table, I've been using GALANT for about 8 years now and it's really lasting. And the wood is natural colour, not painted on so it won't peel off.

 

[gordongoh91]

Anyone interested in galant tables ? I have one for sale.
