Good luck! I dislike legs with a passion, but looks like placement of your desk wouldn't allow legless without some serious engineering

Dw, I could do that!
I will take pics of my dads desk
It's like yours, before I even saw that, but MUCH smaller!
Where do you get the cable management?

I was going to do a 1.55 stretch with no steel bar support, Thicker back support though to compensate this. Do you think from experience this would be okay?
All weight is at back with monitor and tower will be at edge next to the brick wall edge. No legs involved, I have some cable basket laying around for my Cable management. Wickes do a nice cheap 2m length of surface in grey which is what im after.
Long screws and rawl plugs i hope will work as i don't fancy bolting it all.
The grommets im using plastic 80mm Ones

Cable management consists of:
- 3 hours of my time
- Lots of cable ties
- some L brackets which were bent in a vice (http://i.imgur.com/r7fmf.jpg)
I still have a good bunch of cables in the left hand corner, these are mainly networking cables as I have 4 cat5e in use at present on this desk alone (soon to be 5).
Might just get some trunking to hide the Mains socket connections up to the main holders and on the left side for networking.
Ideally I'd like to run DATA/Mouse/Keyboard/USB hub through a different trunk than all my power cables to reduce noise.
I used a set of these, not sure on exact dimensions mind you.

Hopefully wickes isn't considered a competitor? MOD please remove if so

Hmm in total £0 as I sold my other desk for it.
Probably like: 150 all in. Grommets ... maybe more
That is a circular cutting bit, bought it also and had an arbor already, you will need a powerful drill to use one the size I had (80mm).
Mine is 40mm thick. 18mm desk thickness would be suicide, I wouldn't depend on that!
Up to you man... depends how much you're putting on it. 22mm sounds horribly thin for me, one angry bang without proper under frame and it could crack
Project is almost finalised now... some minor cable management to do (TV vertical chrome D-Line), and to tidy cabling from networking equipment at bottom left (not thought of a method to do this yet).
Observant people will see a new acquirement.
