    Redundant writing is something you absolutely need to consider when producing a video script.

    Point #7: Some monitors, like humanscale M2.1, for example, has "stops" that you can add so that your arm sections don't push out beyond a certain point. This is super useful if your desk is against a wall you don't want to damage, a window you don't want to crack, or glass cubicle panel windows you don't want to shatter.

    Take a shot every time he says "absolutely", and you'd pass out halfway through the video xD

    Planning to mount an ikea countertop an a wall for my pc desk. A duo pc desk. So two monitors. But I want one of them to be adjustable for a duo monitor setup. Will a wall mounted arm be a proper option?

    I’m a bit confused seeing some of the monitor “arms” being able to stay horizontally without needing to go behind the desk and possibly hit a wall, but some on the stock images are clearly going behind the desk. It is hard to tell which is what any tips to know that I’ll be able to keep the arm horizontally with minimum desk depth required would be awesome!

    • @ador7572

      it depends on the desk size as well if your desk is wide enough you can swing the monitor arm all the way then tilt the monitor facing forward without te arm hitting the wall.

    Can you recommend a dual monitor mount arm which would require very less space behind the desk as I have a wall? I want to keep the monitor as far as possible closer to the wall.

    What model are you using at 6:07 ? (time in this video) -l see that you can play around and adjust the height on/with that model - that is what l need..! I have an Ultrawide curved monitor - 34”... so l need a very good quality, not something... after turning some screws a few times (when adjusting), to realize that the threats here and there are totally damaged (like in so many models out there...)- Please help me out with the “model and its price”...! Thank you.

    • @btodtv
      @btodtv  3 года назад +1

      The model arm you are referring to is the RightAngle Hover 2 Adjustable Monitor arm that we sell on BTOD.com. The price will depend on which selections you make (single vs dual, pole height, etc.). Thanks for watching! - RG

    I’m worried my desk will break where the mount attaches. I think the desk is made of particle board and is only about an inch thick. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. 🙏🏾

    • @javaman2883

      My desk is an L-shaped, one inch thick particle board. I have a Vivo brand quad monitor mount. I'm using dual 24" Dell on the bottom, with a 23" and 21" on the top. I was unsure about the strength myself when I first got it, but it's been almost two years now without issue. I did move my laptop stand and dock behind the monitor, so getting to it means pulling one bottom monitor forward, I'm sure that puts more stress on it, but it only wiggles a little bit.

    Help advice needed. Moving... I have a samsung odyssey G9 with the ergotron hx arm and adapter. However I'm not sure what's the best option for a desk? Worried about all the things you mentioned. Weight, leaning, tilting, wobbling, edge to short or to wide, ikea or traditional desk? Would like a U or L shaped desk in the middle of the room, so no wall support. No hutch needed. Open to any advice and ty in advance 😊
