"I'm gonna pop some tags, only got $20 in my pocket..."

Went to the thrift shop near me today to see if they had any of those particle board cube organizer shelves for sale. (They did!) But they also had these:

Check out this sick Clone Wars art! it was $2:50. I bought it.

(Pictured: Star Wars: Clone wars art on metal. Anakin Skywalker forlornly gestures to stop a departing Ashoka.)

I almost bought this desk (pictured: a 1990s or 2000s-era desk in a dark brown finish, with a monitor riser obviously meant for a single 1990s or 2000s-era CRT monitor.) But there's no way my current rig would fit on it. I do need a monitor riser, though. I miss desks with built-in monitor risers. I have a desk, and some 2x4s that are probably up to the task, and a friend with a circular saw. I bet I can make one that will work.

Desk Dreams

In my Excel directory I have detailed measurements and what can be interpreted as a plan for my computer desk. The main top is a 3x3' tabletop, but cut 18" in from one corner to form a triangle. That's where the keyboard tray goes, and the resulting triangle is the monitor riser. It has an 18"x12" side wing attached to get over to my armoire on the right hand side, and on hte left hand side will be a 4'x4'x18" bookcase. I think on this often, but nobody wants me using a circular saw for some reason, so it has to wait until I find someone who can assist with this process. I also want to get an ergo-fit assessment so the height of the desktop and the keyboard tray are optimum for my body.

A good desk is of great importance.

Sounds like a good plan! I hope you will be able to do it.
