Pic: Your desk...RIGHT NOW

more of a quick question, so im in the middle of sorting my office out as working from home is likely to be a full time thing for me regardless. any places that are best for sourcing worktops to use as a desk? the size is likely to be about 2 metres for one desk and 1 - 1.5 metres for another.

A new ultrawide monitor and mouse so have had to rearrange things quite a bit. I've also braided the cables on show to tidy it up. On the lookout for a good, mechanical, wireless, TKL keyboard

Replaced my old desk earlier this month, went with an L desk to give me a bit more room.

Where did you get your lamp from - I have one basically similar but with a round lamp on top and magnifying glass and circular tube.
It's really scruffy and I have moved it to my chair to read by but it looks crap but does an excellent job.
I was going to refurb it but if I can get a new one I won't bother - just stick it back in the garage
I think it's from London Lamps and guessing 30-40 years old. - I have searched for one like it but no joy.
PS if its a Lightcraft Lc8074 can you tell me what the measurements are from pivot to pivot -I need 460mm on each.

Thanks

wrapped my old ikea desk in black carbon fibre vinyl. might cut back the large mouse mat so I can see more of the desk.

Couldn't tell you to be honest, I bought it a few years ago.
I might have been from CPC, since my old work place had an account.
But there's plenty on Amazon that are similar.

Thanks for that - Since I saw yours I looked again - just putting (parallel arm) desk lamp in threw up loads - Funny enough none give you the arm length except one.

That looks like a really solid desk. Nice setup
