- Ikea desk setup A DIY of Ikea's Home office computer desk hack using Karlby countertops and Alex drawer units. It's popular for a reason, particularly if you work from home. This is my take with a few extra custom office desk accessories thrown in.
I'm giving my home office/studio a total makeover and chose the Ikea Karlby kitchen counters and Alex drawer units, combined with 4 Adils legs. This is a straightforward, no fuss way of getting a large computer desktop workspace and reasonable amount of storage, without breaking the bank. The countertops aren't exactly cheap, but are reasonable enough. This layout gives me a large L shaped desk, with room to grow. I made a monitor stand, filmmaker charging station, display shelf etc. It's still a work in progress... Cheers!

Great video man, just one question, if anybody can ask:
When it came to attaching the legs to the countertop, did you pre-drill those or did you just screw the legs into it? Im worried of splitting the countertop if I screw everything together without drilling first
Thanks, Definitely a good idea to pre-drill the leg mounting plate holes. Also helps keeping everything nicely aligned and much easier starting your screws. Thanks for Watching!
did you treat your desk top with polyurethane or wood oil?
Danish Oil, but you could add a polyurethane topcoat for even more protection.
do you attach the wood block to the drawers? if so, how?
I didn’t attach the tops to the drawer units, just weight/ gravity. I did place the small protective dots. Hasn’t moved at all. But if you want to for more stability, remove the drawers, pre drill and use particle board screws. Thanks for Watching!
3:15 what is this lighting model called?
It's an Amaran Light Panel, it's excellent. There is an Amazon Link in the description section of this video. Amaran P60c RGBWW LED Panel Video Light amzn.to/3ZalTlF Thanks for Watching!

did you pre-drill holes for the legs or did you just use the screws and directly drilled it in?
I pre drilled legs, marked with pencil. Definitely a good idea, keeps everything straight. Thanks for Watching. 😊
Did you have to pre-drill holes for the legs?
Yes, Definitely a good idea, mark with pencil drill in centre. 😊 Thanks for Watching!
Hello, what do you think about the depth of the tabletop? Are you too close to the monitor?
I don’t think so, it’s never been an issue for me. I spend many hours editing video and photos. Of course you could mount your monitor on a mounting arm. Hope this helps. Thanks for Watching 😊
@@DIYFotoWorks Thanks for the quick answer!
@@anl1919 No Problem.
Was the Karlby difficult to cut?
Not at all, I used a fine cut blade, not particularly sharp, and went slow. 6 1/2 inch cordless Saw. 😊
