Nearly finished! Couple more frames to go up (Infinity War and Captain America) then I think I’ll be done

Steedie. I can see you have the Alex drawers at one end. Are there drawers the other end, or is there just a leg holding the table up? How solid is the worktop? And how does it feel compared to a solid wood top?

I have a filing cabinet underneath but also two legs. The Karlby is a properly sturdy worktop, so the 186cm is more than happy to be supported at just either end. The longer one I think you’d want to support in the middle as well just to prevent any sag

I want the 186. So you think Alex drawers one end and two ikea legs the other would be solid enough?

I did the same, very sturdy.

Case has gone under the desk. Extra crispy clean now.

Probably asked before but to beat a dead horse - which headphone hanger?

LiE · 6 Jun 2019 at 17:57

Amazon but they no longer sell it.

Recently switched back to my preferred OS, MacOS. Mac Mini + the new LG Ultrafine. The desk mat is so new it's still not flat at the edges! Also need hide the external SSD under the desk with a longer USB-C cable.

Ive got a Steelseries mat that’s curled at one corner and won’t go flat. I don’t think anything has ever bugged me as much.

Stick it to the underside of the desk with velcro. No need for a longer cable and even tidier.

I plan to stick some heavy books on the corners overnight, failing that a tea towel and the iron are going to have a go at it.

That was my first thought, but there is a big cable tidy cage under the desk which would be easier to just put it in there and run a longer cable.

My setup not great as this is a temporary place to live.

Need a couple of new office chairs and a few other bits and pieces but nearly there ...

A few changes. Mac mini I changed for a refreshed 2019 13" MacBook Pro. Speakers were moved on and I now have a HomePod. AirPods are now my daily headphones.

The pen has returned for @Steedie
