Title: My desk sucks and I cant find anything for sale worth a shit to replace it Post by: Varg on March 17, 2011, 12:33:03 PM Anyone know where to get a good, sturdy, and flat desk? I dont want any crazy towers on top . Just a big desktop surface.

Of course it's not real wood, but it held up to my drunken abuse through college just fine.

Well yeah the merchandise will be a little more, though you will be getting real wood rather than particle board. Sometimes you'll see a good deal on items so its worth a look Title: Re: My desk sucks and I cant find anything for sale worth a shit to replace it Post by: Troyer on March 17, 2011, 04:37:25 PM 6' banquet table from Sam's Club.
Title: Re: My desk sucks and I cant find anything for sale worth a shit to replace it Post by: Stugots on March 17, 2011, 07:25:05 PM Use an old door. Foam core wood is fine. Just reinforce the one you have now, and put the door on top. The hole where the knob should be makes a great place to route all your wires. And I've tested how much shit you can put on top of it. And...it's a lot!
Or, buy a screw gun, a router, and a saw and build it yourself. Title: Re: My desk sucks and I cant find anything for sale worth a shit to replace it Post by: Varg on March 18, 2011, 11:56:34 AM Stu, man that is awesome idea. I might go take a look at lowes and see what can me had.

Different sizes of surfaces, and then you buy legs to attach to them. you can custom config a pretty sweet desk for around 250bucks. FWIW, shipping usually kills the deal on ikea stuff though, and ikea usually kills your heterosexuality

Christine uses it for work holds all her shit, (Serger, Commercial grade sewing machine, bunch of other shit) No drawers, but you could make em or get someone else that goes under the table.
Or something like this I have two of these apart in my Garage. When Christine and I get our own place you can bet your ass this will be my desk. (http://i21.geccdn.net/site/images/n-picgroup/30234826.jpg) The ones I have are equipped with electrical outlets along the top shelf, the bench is a good 2 inch piece of wood (It's F*ckn heavy...like drop a nut heavy) Title: Re: My desk sucks and I cant find anything for sale worth a shit to replace it Post by: Krogoth on March 22, 2011, 02:48:50 PM Quote from: Phat31198 No drawers, but you could make em or get someone else that goes under the table. preferably a little asian girl.
