do you need more room on your desk? i can help
heres a mod suggestion for everyones desk, make a monitor shelf for it.
get a 12" x 24" shelf board and put 1"x4" boards on each end to raise your monitor and speakers up off of the desk so the keyboard and mouse can slide under the monitor shelf completely out of the way giving you more desk space.
and remember to use wood glue and screws to hold it together for added strength because nails can pull out too easy and the glue makes the bond solid and strong. dont underestimate how strong gluing makes it. (use the glue)
i cut it 24" long for the monitor and speakers to have room to fit and the 18" keyboard and mouse fit easily underneath it. i cut two 1"x4" as side panels. this shelf instantly doubles your free desk space.
on mine i went all out and built it 8" high so my cd cases fit under it and i made it a 4 foot long shelf (i added 1x2 runners under it for added strength) so it holds my printer, monitor, speakers, and the computer case. the computer case was supported by adding a seperate 8"x24" board screwed securely to one end of the shelf and allowed to hang over in the front. this way i could remove it if i decided to put my computer in another spot. i also screwed it down in the back with some corner brackets so it cant move around or tip over from the weight. the only thing on my desk now is the keyboard and mouse. i also added a spare electrical outlet and a 24" floresent under cabinet light from walmart for $10 so now i have a keyboard and desk light that doesnt shine in my face but i covered the clear plastic cover with 3 layers of masking tape to tone down the brightness for working at night.
you can have the entire desk free of all your stuff because its on the shelf instead.
