    My respect to this guy for building most of the main components in the setup instead of paying insane amounts of money on them. Good stuff man

    I would recomend upgrading your chair wheeles to the roller blade style and ditch the floor mat. It was the best update I've ever made to my desk.

    A lot of these videos just show a combination of what people purchased but we actually got to see you build it and how there were troubles along the way. Truly amazing!

      yeah man these videos actually give you a heads up on the issues one might face if they were to do it themselves, but at the same time it actually looks fun to do (minus the money you'd be spending lol)

    I too like how you showcased cheaper alternatives contrary to most. Ergonofis look amazing without a doubt but the price is a big no no. And, the fact you build your own is both admirable and inspirational -- especially for people who either don't have the money or don't want to spent as much. Well done.

    Looks good man.
    But definitely recommend putting the sub on the floor and not have things in front of the speakers. I know it's an old set, but you'd be surprised how much of a difference properly placed speakers can make.
    The sub can interfere with your PC, which you have right below it.
    It could even affect your mouse tracking as it vibrates the desk.

    I do some wood working projects on the weekend and def not a professional but groove made charging 300 plus for the monitor stand is insane. I haven’t look at the quality up close bc I’ll never buy one but it seem like it’s plywood vs a solid piece of lumber. I am with you build your own on this one. Pro tip buy oak stair tread from your Home Depot and the will cut it to your desired dimensions then cut add the 2 inch dowels for leg. stain it and it only cost 30 bucks

    Awesome video, i just purchased my new sit stand desk from desky, i actually went and priced up all the parts individually from your links and it is definitely cheaper but because desky had a promotion on their desks right now i was actually able to buy theirs at a cost of only about $40 more then buying all the parts, if it wasnt on sale then id definitely build one like you have. The only difference was the cable management tray and 8 plug adapter which did cost me more. But i found your recommendation of that desk pad really nice so i literally just ordered one for my new desk. Looks really aesthetic.
    Great in depth video, well done :)

    • @trexzar87
      @trexzar87  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Corbin! I think the tabletop price has gone up since I bought it but Desky's promotion sounded like a good one if it was only $40 more expensive! Good luck with the desk pad, you'll enjoy that it has a grip on the bottom so it doesn't slide around!

I got a fixed desk that's robust they dont make them this strong anymore all i will like to do is just add a bottom frame but only if its really strong enough to support about 300lbs this is what im looking for to im far lighter than that but I saw desks costing thousands that support this weight. I got a Anthro desk and you know the quality im talking about. At the time standing desks wasn't available for my 60inch.
