Looking for a decent PC desk

numnums
Go to solution Solved by Bittenfleax,

Ah, I never thought about making my own. Thanks for he suggestion! And I'm in the U.S., I'm just moving from California to Nevada .

Ahh right. Well you could make it when you get to Nevada? It will be easier then. (I think it will be cheaper than moving it or save more room for other stuff). But yeah, I do not know much about the US but wherever you can buy general building/DIY supplies from you could just pick up some 2" thick wood (don't know what kind, I know an Oak and plastic compound was used for my bro's when I did his)

Hi everyone,

I'll be moving soon and rather than taking my current, old desk with me, I've been thinking about buying a new one. My old desk was pretty much just an ordinary desk that you could generally use for anything. I've been poking around the inter webs but I can't find anything I like, I don't have a lot with my PC, just the tower, a 24 inch monitor, mouse and keyboard, and a printer. I may be adding another monitor. Also some cable management under the desk itself for wire placement would be lovely. Also being able to add more to it would be awesome. If anyone you guys can leave me recommendations it would really help me out a lot.

Also, what country?

Yes, the idea was to lighten my load moving so I have as little as possible to move. The U.S. has facilities like that as well.

Find an office depot, staples or office max in Nevada. Check out their stock. They have some decent desks for a good price.

It's always a good day if you woke up breathing.
