In this video I show you how I built my desk. A lot of Inspiration for that build came from the channel: / @philvandelay
Video: • How to Build a Cable-F... Because I don't have a lot of space in my office, I had to build it very functionally. I have tried to remove all cables from the desktop.
Each charger has its own place on the right side. But I should have made the cable duct a little larger. It's a bit small. I mount also LED lighting with a few LED strips.
I also thought about making it height adjustable. But I don't sit often on the desk anyway, it wasn't that important to me. The drawer cabinets are from Ikea.
The black panel on the back is an acoustic panel. Hope this will improve the sound quality. That's maybe also interesting for some people they like to build a Gaming desk. I'm planning something like voiceover video versions for the channel (members), leave me a comment if you're interested in something like that :)
Now I have almost a complete office as a desk...workstation
Now everything finally has a fixed place and I don't have to search for something all the time :)
I'm glad that I've finally completed this welding project and I'm really only annoyed that I haven't built it longer.
Greetings Dirk

Nice build. As someone who's been following your channel for a while I have to say though, it was disappointing to see you choose not to give credit, considering most of these ideas came from my design. Especially for a creator on the same platform, I feel like a mention/link would have been appropriate.
Thank you Phil 😁 No that's right of course I should have mentioned you. If that's okay with you, I'll put it in the video description. It is of course almost impossible to build anything that someone has not already built somewhere. But I also have to say that I should have watched your video in its entirety and not just been inspired by your thumbnail. Then I wouldn't have made the mistake of building a much too small cable duct. I also miss the strip with the socket and USB connections 😅
@@TheMetalist Sure, being 100% original is unrealistic (and overrated) and I welcome people taking inspiration in general, otherwise why show things publicly in the first place right? Just if it's other RUclipsrs I think it's cool to support each other. So yeah adding it in the description would be appreciated 👍
Done 😁 Yes, that's right, you have to support each other 💪
Similar, but also different… maybe you should’ve thanked IKEA also for copying one of their designs… 🤷🏼♂️
Only problem with your videos is there's not enough of them! Awesome work as usual. Your work is truly inspiring. Thanks for all the effort in producing these videos!
Thank John for that nice feedback 💪😁
Quality not quantity. And soon there will be more
I think only problem there is no Voice over :D would be cool!
Gorgeous. Love the sliding monitor bracket and indirect lighting.
Thank you 😁
Nicely done. I'm rather jealous of your ability to combine fabrications with artistic flares. And I never would have thought of mounting a monitor that way. ingenious.
Thank you Adam😁
Wie immer tolle Arbeit, ich mag diese vielen kleinen Tricks und die Kamera Perspektiven
Vielen Dank Andrè 😁
What a wonderful build. Thank you. You can make some pretty welds. Considder not grinding your welds if you build more furniture. Personally I like that you see the hand made look.
Thank you 😁 there will come up a nice furniture build with bare steel and tig brazing welds 😊
Órale te quedó muy bonito el mueble felicidades,
Saludos desde Xalapa México
Thank you 👋😁
Great looking desk! I like the way you angled the tubing to make it more stylish.
😁
Hallo Dirk, mal wieder ein kurzweiliges Video, interessant zuzuschauen. Auf jeden Fall alles schon recht stabil gebaut. Du hast auch nur top Werkzeug, da kann man im Positiven gesehen, schon fast neidisch werden. Ich glaube, mit deinen Videos triffst Du das Interesse einer großen Community. Danke für die Unterhaltung am Sonntag Abend.
Hi Helmut, vielen Dank😊 Ja ist halt mein großes Hobby 😁👍
Wow einfach nur Hammer was Du immer für geniale Ideen hast und diese in einer Perfektion umsetzt .War bestimmt auch viel Planung vorausgegangen.Super Video , großen Respekt Dirk.Gruß Marko
Vielen Dank Marko, ja geht meist Woche bis ich anfange 😅
That is a really cool
That monitor bracket is genius.
Thank you 😊
Dirk, another amazing creation. So great to see more of your designs come to life before out eyes, all using the other tools you have built along the way. I would definitely purchase the plans for this desk if/when you offer them. I have the perfect place to add this in my shop. Thank you 👍👍😎👍👍
Hi Joel, thank you 😊 yes a couple people ask already 😅
can you please put the dimensions of the tubing you used??? the plan doesnt work. there are othe project plans.
Man, that looks super nice and tidy! It's especially satisfying that the thickness of your framing tips match the thickness of the boards.
Thank you 😁 yes that turned out nice. i thought about to buy a bigger board but at this wood prices it was easier to change the profil 😅😁
Nice work! What material are those black panels?
Acoustic panels
So coooll... !
great work and inspiration too ! you are great 😸 always I learn something from your video 🙏
Thank you Claudio, Awesome 💪😁
Freakin Awesome! It only took one video to want to subscribe, i haven't been disappointed yet...keep up the good work. Absolutely kick-ass stuff bro!
Awesome 😊 Thank you
Richtig cooler Schreibtisch😍 es ist immer wieder ein Genuss deine Kreationen anzuschauen. Bin gespannt was sonst noch so kommen wird. Mach weiter so 🦾
Ja da ist noch einiges geplant 💪😁
@@TheMetalist da bin ich mal gespannt 🤩
The total "WOW" effect. That is probably the koolest desk I have seen...
Awesome work 👏 👌 👍
😁😁😁 thank you
Great job! Your videos are always awesome... keep up the good work 👍
Thank you Daniel 😁
Nice ripoff. Phil Vandelay built one almost identical to this, except, it's less aestetically pleasing with the tapered edges and whatnot. Same cable management idea, same "modular" idea for the screen, same storage up top, same metallic/wooden construction...
Thank you 😁 Yes, I watched also the video from Phil and he did a great job. I should have put a larger cable channel on it 😅
Amazing work! Would have loved to see the painting process. Is your channel name inspired by "The Mentalist" tv show?
Thank you 😊
I would call myself the mentalist of metal 😊
i love it!
Wow, that is one feature packed desk for such a minimalist outward design! I love it!
Thank you 😁
On 14:53 what was that button you used to power on everything?
Let's see $2,500 for the desk and $134,000 for the workshop plus five years of learning to weld. Not bad, a worthwhile investment!
super gemacht... wäre was für mich und nen Space-Sim-Rig ^^
Ergotron, Shmegatron… Dirk splits a tube in half for a sliding VESA mount 😂
Plenty of ingenuous solutions, geil!
Thats a great looking desk,nice work.
Thank you 😁
Silly fact: A cobra cannot "fold back" its' fangs like adders or rattlers can do. Same with the mambas. Therefore their fangs are relatively short, only about a quarter inch. First time viewer here, and I was awestruck by that cobra you got there!
Nur der wahre wig Schweißer kann hören welche Teile aus Alu gefertigt wurden
What a great build. Really enjoyed everything from start to finish. Need to rewatch, but did I miss the building of the shelf thing for your GoPro?
Thank you 😊 yes i missed it to filmed it how i put them on. And that why i haven't show it 😊 my mistake 😅
Is there gonna be a design dor it up on your shop?
If there will be more people ask for it i will make a set of drawing 😊
350-400kg table yikes - need all the nabors to help move it into place - either way good job - i see alot of cable tho.
Thank you 😊 yes but every cable got his place now😅
Great build, unique design combined with raw functionality. Love it!
Ohne Wort. Einfach nur sau sau geil. vielen Dank fürs Zeigen, Hammer.
😁😁😁
We are used to your distinguished works, but do you need all this iron from the heaters?
it became very heavy
Thank you 😁 It was actully left over material from an old project. I just tried to used it all 😅 and there was nothing left 😊
fantastic work. Being familiar with the current price of steel, I bet that desk cost a fukton.
Thank you 😁 The acoustic panel and the wood were each as expensive as the steel. But at the moment everything is really expensive 😅
Seeing your project builds you always get me so inspired, wanting to build something similar for myself.
..and then I realise how extensive thinking, planning, measuring and high quality work that needs to go into something even simpler..
..and it gets me soo tired!… 😱🤣🤣
..so I settle for “being entertained by the artistry.”
And that’s good enough for me 😅
Kudos and kind regards

Thank you Anders 😁 ok try my best 💪
Its wonderful work.
The skills and craftsmanship on display here are amazing! I would love to be able to do this. Very jealous. Very impressed.
Hi Owen, thank you 😊
Very, very nice desk. Thank you for the video.
😁👍
seems nice but that monitor stand is total garbage
hey guy that is one bad ass computer table i like it very much i need one like that good work !
Thank you 💪😁
I love the lit up backpanels, really nice look!
Geniale Umsetzung der einzelnen Funktions-punkten, sowie was der Tisch für dich haben oder können muss💪🏻🛠️ erinnert mich irgendwie n bisschen an den FREDDE von so nem schwedischen "Förster" 😅😁
Mich würde noch interessiert wie diese Akustik- ich nenns jz mal Lamellen - heissen oder wie man die nennt? Find ich nämlich n geiles prinzip dass man die, wie Holz-Täfer verkleidungen so ineinander steckt. 👌🏻🙏🏻😎
Vielen Dank 😁
Sind akustik Paneele bekommt man fast in jedem Baumarkt.
Question what did you use to tap the table @7:16 ? Been looking for a (not too expensive) tool to do occasional tapping (albeit mostly in aluminum profiles) and not having much luck finding a decent affordable tool.
I use always a battery drill. For my one i have a adapter fir the tap
And for sure the right tap bit
What's the microphone for? You never talk :)
I plan voiceover versions from my Video but i just will do it for channel member....In any case, I've thought about it😅
Show 🤓👍
Looking goooood!! Did you think of concealed hinges for the access to the power strip?
Complimenti molto molto molto bello 🤙 🤙 🤙 🤙
Thank you 😁
Nice job!
Skillzzzzzzzz...... Great Engineer desk, Super artistic concept and all 100% useable... Great work man.
Thank you 😁
That's what i call a real work environment. Tired of these "clean" bullshit desk- which means sitting on floor with keyboard and mouse. Such a great job!
Thank you 😁💪
🎉🎉🎉 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This is really cool!
Sehr cooles Projekt 👍
Dankeschön 😁
The way you mounted the monitor is another level of creativity. Man i love your vids
Great job !!!
Nice job, looks great.
Thank you 😁
Da hast wieder was hingezaubert. Saubere Arbeit wie immer
Ja war dringend notwendig 😅 vielen Dank
Mir fehlen die Worte! Saubere Arbeit Diggi! 😍😃🤙🏻
Vielen Dank...weißt ja Platznot macht erfinderisch 😅
@@TheMetalist so ist es! 😉
Awesome work! Congrats!
Thank you 😊
I could work all day with that desk. The sliding monitor is an ingenious idea.
Awesome 😁
11:15 What is this made from, and where can I get some???
Wood Strips and fleece
Over engineering stuff doesn’t impress. Simple is key. Not spending a month on a desk
Hater
@@fabiangonzalez1391 Yes I am. But am I wrong?
I love the desk, it's solid with really interesting lines, I like the flip up cable tidy too, doesn't intrude in to the desktop space much at all. Not a fan of the monitor support, though. Not really enough adjustability to move it and still be usable, sadly. Great idea though.
bro, fell in love with this table... wanted to make one for me, but unfortunately Project plans are not showing available on Etsy from your link. Even texted you there, for the project plans. Plz if see my comment, kindly revert bro.
😮 Epically nice, well done Sir!
Thanks Tobias 😊
Very good job, congrats
Nothing more to say except NICE
Cheers
That is absolutely bad ass custom computer desk!!!!
Dude I thought you were one of us, till I saw that festool saw 😢. JK. Amazing shiz content as always. Keep it up!
Looks amazing! I personally think a monitor arm would have been better, the way it is now, it doesent have correct angle and cant really adjust that.
Moin Moin, wenn ich das richtig sehe, hast du Winkelschleifer von Fein. Kannst du die empfehlen ? Mir ist gerade meine 2te. Bosch kaputt gegangen…😊
Mmmh ja steht Fein drauf sind aber eigentlich Bosch Winkelschleifer (CG 17-125 und CG13-125) aber eigentlich bin ich echt zufrieden damit und ich bin nicht der größe Bosch Fan. Welche hattest du das die kaputt gegangen sind?
@@TheMetalist … eine hab ich bereits entsorgt und die letzte die kaputt gegangen ist, ist eine GWS 7-115 Professionell…. das klingt das Motorlager einfach nicht mehr schön. Made in Germany steht drauf….🙄
@@Thomasroehl naja wirklich Leistung hat der nicht deswegen sind die auch nicht langlebig. Bei der Leistung klasse würde eher mit Roloc Scheiben 50mm oder 75mm arbeiten. Dafür ist er extrem leicht 😁
Wenn du einen wirklich guten allzweg Winkelschleifer willst kann ich dir den Fein cg 13-125 oder baugleich Bosch Gws 13-125 cie empfehlen.
Viele Firmen haben kaum noch so schwache Winkelschleifer gebaut da sie für die heutige Schleifscheiben nicht mehr die entsprechenden Leistungen haben.
I don't see the plans for this project? I would like a copy of the prints? Nice job on the buiild...
👍
Just curious - if this was a commissioned build, how many hours and what was the cost in materials?
Thanks for the video!
Like how you simplified how to register a company, just like to understand the process of choosing a name, are you saying I should choose the name before filling out the form, please explain this process step by step, and if I am making my sister to be the sectary, she has to be there at the time of registering?
Awesome craftmanship and design and great video
🙀 very nice 👍🏽
😁👍
Сразу лайк до просмотра однозначно. 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you 😁👍
Good🇮🇩
Salam dari indonesia🇮🇩👍👍
👋
This desk can also be used to jack up a truck!
😅😂
It’s a computer desk. And so heavy he can’t even move it ! Lol. Great engineering bud. Great for if you need to work on tank engines too
Magnificent build, can you do a run through on how you did your wiring all over, I'm particularly interested on how you did the wiring for the monitor and how it's able to move sideways while being hidden
Thank you 😁 The cable is currently still going down😅 But it can move well
Min. 11:14 what is this black material and where to buy it. Please put links :) :)
krasser handwerker und super style der projekte und der videos, wie immer großer respekt!!
Vielen Dank 😊
Wie immer einfach nur qualitativ Hammer! Man sitzt da und denkt sich: Junge, was für ein Aufwand für ein Schreibtisch 😳. Und gleichzeitig denkt man sich: Junge, was für ein Aufwand für einen Schreibtisch 😍 Die Akustikdämmung fürs Mikro habe ich in der Art auch noch nie gesehen, ist allerdings so auch ne beeindruckende Idee. Ebenso wie der Schieber für den Bildschirm 👍 Insgesamt wieder einfach nur sehr geil umgesetzt.
Und du hast dir jetzt noch einen Durchbruch in der Wand gemacht, damit die Kemper-Absaugung im Nebenraum steht? 😉
Wie schon so oft: einfach nur mehr davon! Bei deinem Kanal ist es echt Tatsache, dass man vorm Anschauen vom neuesten Video schon weiss, dass es gut wird und nie Verschwendung ist reinzugucken 🙏
Vielen Dank 😁 Ja der war schon aufwendig aber hat sich gelohnt. Endlich hat alles einen festen Platz und ich muss nicht immer zeug suchen. Die Akustik Paneele bekommt man inzwischen in jedem Baumarkt.
Bin mit dem Schreibtisch fall jeden Fall brutal damit frieden 😁
Ja die Absaugung steht ein Raum weiter und die Schweißgerät ab sofort auch habe da immer das Problem mit den Lüfter Geräuschen aber das schlimmste Geräusch ist der Adflo Gürtel vom speedglas Helm. Diese Töne bekomme ich einfach nicht weg. Deswegen werde diese Maschine jetzt aus der Werkstatt verbannt 😅 das der Sound besser wird 😁
looks like dad and I’s next project
a masterpiece!!!
😊
Why do you want a mic? You didn't say a single word in the whole video :P
I plan to do voiceover version for the channel member 😊
@@TheMetalist Just kidding, great video by the way!
@@malditocarajo 😅
holyshit this guy have strong yet steady hands
veeeryyyy gooooood!!! (y) really, you're amzingly keen and skillful
This is some superb metalworking
Thank you 😊
Good work
Thank you 😁
Dammmmmm your good!!!!
Oh man, that is a nice desk and a great setup. I really like the monitor sliding bar.
Thank you 😊
