Modding a third desk - monitor addiction.

Here's my latest mod to date. This mod was prompted when i purchased a third 22" monitor to go with my setup and found out there was no space. :cry

The desk

Sorry, i didn't get any pictures of the desk as standard but these are pretty close, minus my measuring.

Back




Pilots drill holes, allows me to get the Jigsaw in for cutting.


The jigsaw and goggles ofcourse, safety first.


Work in progress.





More measuring. The "Metal bar starts 6.5in" looks shopped but it's actually written on the table in marker.


What's in the box?


Da darr - dremel!


Dremel and cutting discs.


Upside down, measuring the metal cut.


Tools, also wearing gloves when cutting close up.


Swiggly line = don't need.


Work in progress.




May of got a bit excited and cut it's leg off.


Balanced for further cutting.


Length cut.




Unneeded remains.


Top bit complete.






umm, these metal bits need to go.


No pictures of them being destroyed. :unhappy

Screwed the leg in, also super glued for extra strength. Weighing it down.




My set up as it was with 2 monitors, (as you can see you can't get a 3rd on there), believe me i've tried.


Third wooden desk, in place.


Other view, showing leg support.


3 monitors in place! :yay


Close up.



Now i just need to find space for a fourth. :whistle
