I've actually got a Pentium mobo at my mum's... Never did a build with it as I moved on but I was led to believe it worked about 15 years ago! Think it's a 200/233. Even has USB ports

Could probably send it your way if you're interested?

That would be fantastic as there really aren't any reasonable ones on eBay!

Its a Fleximounts F9 https://www.amazon.es/FLEXIMOUNTS-F9-escritorio-movimiento-oscilación/dp/B01MRL6V3P/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1539116050&sr=8-1&keywords=Fleximounts+F9

I got it from Amazon Spain for 69eur. I am really impressed with it. Excellent cable management, USB3.0 ports, solid. This monitor isn't wobbling in the slightest. Really pleased

Just out of curiosity, the description says up to 30'' and 9 kg weight support, but in the picture it looks like you having a 34'' Superwide monitor, is that correct ?? And if so, any problems at all to have the monitor in any position you want ?

Some palletised MDF sheeting and some cleats

Photo of the case, not to everyone's taste, and tbh, I prefer a darker brown but they don't do it.

What case is that?

Monitor arm

And monitor arm fitted

Yes, I know I need a mouse - that and a much better KB coming soon.

That desktop is lovely. Is it oak? And is it freestanding? I'm planning to build a simple desk using just a worktop attached to the walls of an alcove and am looking for ideas.

So far no issues, but honestly I've not tried moving it around much. You are correct, it is a 34" UW monitor. It weighs 6.2kg. My main thought was the size itself is irrelevant and that the main issue would be the weight. So I went for the idea of getting one which can take more weight than the monitor. So far no issues at all! It is solid

I am not going to try portrait mode because I don't see the point

Thanks for your reply, appreciated ! One more question though, are you using the clamp and roughly how much space is needed to use it ? I have a cable holder under the desk, just want to make sure I still can use the clamp since not wanting to drill through the desk.

And yes, I don't see the point of having a UW monitor in portrait mode either !

I will measure and send you a DM - save spamming up the thread anymore!

As I found when I was looking for a new wallet a lot of places market plether as authentic/real imitation leather, it's not flipping leather then is it!?

I can tell by the smell alone, real leather just smells right.

Then again it does the job and it’s cheap. I did find some real leather cases but they are like a book style and too bulky or just stick on skins with no protection.

What case is that?

New apartment G5, next to our current apartment G6 in Greece, so we can knock the two together and have 3 bed, 2 bath and 3 balconies, a decent size..... Retirement beckons , though the new living room will become our bedroom, and the existing third bedroom our office.

Should be fine as I imagine the centre of mass of a 34 inch ultrawide is similar to a 27 inch 16:9 monitor
