If you do something like this can you share your end result? I started a website for the idea to spread around Thingiverse and am hoping to showcase desks/usages from others who use the desk differently.
So creative, i've been struggling with depression and motivation. Watching videos like these absolutely blows me away that with motivation, knowledge, and time you can accomplish pretty much anything. I appreciate the time you put into making this video Keith, really helps people like me out.
Thanks for the note. Get back into it. I've found that re-motivating myself often involves lowering my standards to de-intimidate my mind about the project at hand. As motivation increases, so do my standards. Then burnout. It's a cycle. Burnout usually involves setting my standards too high for that season of life.
I love everything about this channel. From: Only buy yellow tape measures, To: Magnetic lego men handing out microSD cards precisely (47.3+4...) 51.3 cm from the floor
Great ideas. My daughter gives you thumbs up on the Lego dog idea and the roller for your whiteboard. This REALLY makes me want to upgrade from my current mdf desktop.
Maybe the best desk build I've seen for practicality and looking great. But you went through the accessories so quickly. I wanted to see so much more of what you added in, why, how it improves your flow, and what other additions or changes you plan to make. Great video.
Honestly... Best desk I have seen for style and function ! I might have to do this one over the winter !!! Love the dog hole, metal back edge and that nifty whiteboard too! Thanks for the insight and making the video. It's headed for my saved folder :- )
I'm not joking. I almost had a small panick attack at 11:24 seeing that abominable snowman out of nowhere. That was probably the scariest monster of my childhood haha
First video of yours I've seen. Video quality is fantastic, great build quality, and some excellent and unique ideas for the desk. When I finally build mine I'm definitely going to try to integrate a metal strip and maybe a few dogs as well.
You're really cranking up the product value on your videos 👌 I wish I would have watched this before getting a fully built standing desk online. So many great storage solutions, don't mind if I steal some of them.
I have that exact sit/stand frame and I've been looking for a way to make a bespoke desktop to fit onto it. I love what you've created! I just wish I had my own workshop and tools!
I like how you didnt pause your video to ask me to subscribe. You used subtle hints like the White boards and Clipboard. Packed all throughout your video. I feel like this was such a great way to handle that. Lately i find myself watching a bunch of youtube videos and skipping through the first minte and a half because they beg for subscribers. I don't subscribe to them (even if i watch them every singe day , simply out of principle ... A subscriber is earned ... not requested) Amazing video content as well. I have a nice desk and it fits my needs. But watching you custom build a desk to fit your need for both work and hobby , well it was somewhat inspring. Maybe i can fix the little quirks i face with my setup with some time and ingenuity. Thanks for sharing again! I subscribed and clicked the bell. Hope i see more quality content from your channel :)
That metal strip, thanks for that tip. didn't think about the usefulness of that. It is so obvious, yet I didn't think about it. I might personally assign one socket of my power socket for mere earthing on the metal, just as safety nerd precaution.
Hey, great video, I got a wood top I'd like to upgrade kind of like you did. Having a steel bar to attach things with magnets seems just brilliant. Could you give me some details how you made the recess for it? I have no clue about woodworking, but i would like to have it sit flush like you have. I'd appreciate it if you find the time for a reply. Thanks and keep up with your unique style.
That quick screen at the beginning = "Redacted to avoid demonetization". Watched at 0.25x speed, which made this guy sound like he was slow motion drunk like Will Ferrell in the movie Old School. You're welcome. Also, nice video, guy! Stumbled upon this from a woodworking group I'm in on Facebook.
Thanks! Yeah I had a friend who knows RUclips stuff preview the video ahead of time, and he noted that mentioning the current global health issue may trigger demonetization. Looks like RUclips has changed their policy somewhat recently but I didn’t feel like risking it. Thanks for the comment. I’ll have to listen to myself at 1/4 speed...that sounds fun.
Sweet desk. Dunno when I'll be rebuilding my current setup, but I'll definitely be considering adding some dog holes and maybe a steel strip on the back. Great innovations, very unique.
Your video content makes me want to see more, so I subscribed. Very relaxing to watch yet very informative. It's like watching a romantic comedy sci-fi thriller, it's got something of every thing and THATs why I will be back for more. Keep it up!
After machining, surfacing and sanding cherry, do you suppose the suntan could practically be hastened by exposure to a UV light source before finishing? I've got a "vintage" UV generator once used to speed the cure of UV finishes and I'd like not to scrap it for the copper.
Somewhere on my IG I have a pic of giving it a try, however my UV light is smallish and the results were hardly visible after a day, which probably wasn’t long enough. If you’ve got a decently powerful light give it a try and let me know how it works!
This is such a great idea that could be expanded on. I really want to start a desk company some day because no one around really goes that 'crazy' with setups. Most have basic legs and some have a decent selection of tops, maybe some cable management stuff. Very basic. So how would I expand on it? I would design a simple cover so the top can be flush, perhaps secured from a tension release mechanism (accessed from below). Or accessed from above if you don't want it flush. It could be used for adding platforms or small shelves, easily taken apart. For that I would want some kind of tension or locking mechanism though. At the moment I use poles and super clamps, it's really quite ugly if you're looking directly at them. My main room light is actually set up this way, with a light shining upwards so it reflects as very soft light.
This is amazing! Would love to see you grow in subscriber count. Only noticed you today, after watching the video in full screen I was supriced to see how small your channel is. I now know what my next desk layout will look like. Might want to give an update on what you added to, designed for or removed from the desk since your build?
OK so I'm hooked, sub'd and likely to binge watch when I get time to. Now time to get my elastic basket weaver skills in shape for all the dang cables the cats like to chew. Not today I'm outa here!
This is amazing. I too have the need for a desk with a corporate-day-job mode as well as a side-hustle-creative mode. Will definitely be taking some tips from this one!
This is superb. Loved the video and its style, learned a bunch of things in different parts of your telling of the build, and you managed to make it feel like a light video. Subscriber earned!
Converted to detachable cord. :D I use these when video editing to avoid delay and maintain the sound that the 7506's are intended to have. Good catch!
@@KeithsTestGarage your declutter dedication is admirable. now where to store the cord :P good choice tho; i'd be skeptical of critical listening over bluetooth
I'm pretty sure they won't as long as 1) you're not using mechanical HDDs near them, and 2) the magnets aren't moving. Don't take my word for it though. I'd be interested to hear ElectroBoom's take. Here's a quick MakeUseOf finding on the matter (they say magnets are safe near SD cards): www.makeuseof.com/tag/can-magnets-ruin-an-sd-card-6-common-reasons-why-you-cant-use-your-sd-card/ Regardless, it's a good consideration to think through, so thanks for the comment.
Great video, as always. You've inspired me to do a similar build. 5+ months in, anything you'd change? Any problem with wobble forward and backward or laterally?
Yes one notable change. I beefed up the back by screwing a strip of hard maple underneath. That reduced monitor wobble considerably. But my cherry top is only about 3/4 thick. If you were doing 1” thick oak you probably wouldn’t need to study it up. Also I added upside down power cubes (with USB) under each side, halfway to the front, so I could quickly plug in a fan or whatever the day called for. I’ll find a link and reply with it.
@@KeithsTestGarage all of this was super helpful, thanks! I was able to make mine out of ash, closer to 7/8 thick (wobble is no problem), and the power block was a huge win. I didn't go full bore on the holey design, though I was able to use a hole/grommet for wires, threaded hole for my architect-style lamp, and dog holes for my speakers (using glued on dowels)
I don't think so. Here are a couple links. If you ever find a credible source saying different I'd be interested to understand the risk. electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/36921/does-magnetism-affect-sd-cards and www.makeuseof.com/tag/can-magnets-ruin-an-sd-card-6-common-reasons-why-you-cant-use-your-sd-card/
If you can afford a nicer stand I’d recommend getting something nicer. But, answers: In sitting position, no. But in standing position yes. A couple things: 1) spreading the legs out a bit helps prevent side to side wobble. (As in, when it’s up, I pull the bottom of the right leg a bit further right.) 2) the monitor arm amplifies the wobble but only in standing position. I was highly annoyed at first but have actually gotten used to it. If you can afford a better quality stand I’d recommend finding something else.
Hidden feature - yank on the cord hard enough and you'll reveal a hidden jack! Actually, I installed one of these jacks that fit very nicely amzn.to/3meRfQR. And one of these plugs to turn the coiled cable into a standalone cable amzn.to/2LxvGOO. Each wire is actually a bundle of super tiny individually coated wires, so you have to scrape/burn off the coating before soldering, but other than that it was a pretty natural upgrade.
@@KeithsTestGarage Dang broseph! You're way too fancy for me. Thanks for this awesome info - might have a new project on my hands. Your channel should have 100x the subscribers. Good stuff here.
Is this the new version of a quarter life crisis? I did the same thing working from home and our desks look oddly similar except my metal bars are going vertically along the sides of the desk. I liked the idea of mounting hooks underneath the desk for cable management though. Overall, great looking project!

That makes at least two of us who value safety. Great thing about these portable bandsaws is that they slowly drop chips downward, rather than fling them everywhere like an angle grinder.
Smartest solution I've seen on the entire interwebs.
Lego, 3d printing, woodwork and holes. What an epic desk!

Cheese is good. I wonder if there's a market for MFE - Multifunctional Emmenthaler, where all holes are 20 mm, on a 32 mm 3D grid.
And how would I go about building this with nothing but a Walmart circular saw?
Big holes.
I need holes. Lots of holes.
My desk requirements are to get my robots to come clean it
What requirements do your robots have?
xracing???
Darn free RUclips music…never original I guess.
Feet are for walking and not for measurement ;)
So, whats your real job?
Programmer-ish.
Imagine building a modular desk and not using mousepad
My takeaway from this? My desk looks like shit.
You don't buy sticks you buy bars and if it's shorter and smaller diameter it's a rod . It's not wood
You probably have a point, but my dilemma is that bars are also dessert to eat and places to drink and exams that lawyers take and vertical lines on a musical staff. We need more words.
