Anybody want to help me find a new desk?

Lonewolf777

Hey guys, after receiving leftover money from school I've been upgrading my current setup and have plans to get three 34" ultrawide monitors. Due to the size of them, I'll need a rather large desk. I like the minimalist look, and need a white desk in order to match my black and white setup. I really like this design:

However, this image was created using a 3D modeling program. Do any of you know a desk that is similar? I'd prefer if the desk was longer than 96" to fit not only the monitors but have a place for my desktop to sit.

I have seen a desk from a website in the UK:

that comes in large sizes, but I have yet to hear a reply after a few days and I live in the US so I'd imagine shipping charges would be astronomical.

Pretty much every city, even tiny ones make custom furniture at reasonable prices. You just have to bring them a sketch or spend time explaining what you want.

 

 

Something like a custom desk wouldn't be expensive at all, it's just a couple of boards after all.

local places are the best for custom orders, can't really link that.

I checked out a lot of IKEA desks, but I don't believe they were long enough. I have seen custom desks made using IKEA counter tops (98") though. The closest IKEA to me is nearly an hour away though. I was going to order the counter top online and put it together myself because it's only $69US, yet shipping alone brought that up to $208.

you could take two ikea desks, wood glue them together , then smooth it off and lay another thin layer over that so you cant even feel where the two desks meet

I will have to look into it as I'm new to the area I'm currently staying at, but I'll probably have to make a custom desk. IKEA is quite a distance away, and I've got a small car that can't fit anything in it.

IKEA has some good desks that are quite large. You can build your own and put together two desks to replicate the desks shown on the pictures.

Seems like the best solution, I'm not a good handy man so it'll be an interesting project.

Trust me, I built my own desk that my keyboard, mouse, speakers etc sits on right now from IKEA and it is so easy to do. They already have pre-drilled holes for the legs, just needs you to put them on and screw them in :) It's not that hard, give it a go! :D You'll save money too I think.

The best way to get a new desk is to go to the store and see how the desk is, (it would be utterly disappointing that if you assembled the desk and didn't like it). Ikea have some great showcases with their desks and they can ship it to your help (and help you install, if that's needed). PLUS you can go get that $1 ice cream! 

 

Hope you'll find your awesome desk for your gaming station. ;D
