So I'm in need of a very large desk (or two) because I am running out of space. I have my PC on one side. My printer a graphics tablet on the other and My monitor on the middle. I already have a fairly large desk but I just need more room to draw without being cramped up (The desk is 1900mmx800mm). I've thought about doing this for it but was just wondering if you people had any recommendation.

 

NOTE: I don't want to pay for than 400 for both so just keep that in mind.

 

Anyways thank you for you time.

Just get a slab of wood and some metal poles for legs.

 

It's always good to learn some basic craftsmanship, even it it's just cutting a slab of wood

Corsair is overrated, and Anime is ruined by the people who watch it

I was thinking about that too but I'm not entire sure about why I opted to not do it. I think it was the lack of tools.

I'm gonna go ahead and say IKEA is kinda stupid. They charge a flat rate of $100 shipping which is good if you're ordering a whole room or house or whatever of stuff, but if you're just ordering a desk from em yea no. I was gonna do this and found that out. Stupid idea.

So it would be great if people suggested things that aren't IKEA. Like I found going to home Depot and getting a bit of plywood board and getting some legs would be a much cheaper solution. Now if you have an IKEA in your area you can go to, fine, but there's not that many stores around.

So yea.
