    I got to say thank you for making a thorough video. I really appreciate showing a full assembly and alignment of a desk.

    I really enjoyed your video. I just purchased the E7 Plus. I wish I would have seen your video before purchase to use your code. I still have to assemble and am a little worried as I am not very handy with building stuff. I feel more confident having watched you build the frame. Great job.

    Great video! Thanks for the detailed walk through! I am concerned about how the electronics will hold up over the years, though I guess time will tell.
    Acacia is a relatively soft wood. Have you seen dings or scratches with how you finished it?

    • @JosephKim
      @JosephKim  Před 3 měsíci

      I am extremely careful on my desk as I know the wood and the finish is not the most robust material. It makes handling products on my desk a bit of challenge, but I love the look.
      I do use a desk mat normally to protect it from day to day wear and I have not had much dings or scratches. If I drop a phone or a camera I'm sure it will damage it 😂

    • @JosephKim
      @JosephKim  Před 2 měsíci

      I forget the exact size! But you should always look at the stem of the screw, not the threads. I often go one size smaller just in case.

    Great video! Does the front support beam come into contact with your chair of legs?

    • @JosephKim
      @JosephKim  Před 2 měsíci

      Not at all. I'm not 100% sure which is the part you are referring as the support beam of the frame, but no portion of the desk comes in contact of the chair.

    Hi! Thanks so much for sharing this. Does this also have a lot of shake from front to back when the desk is at standing height?

    • @JosephKim
      @JosephKim  Před 3 měsíci +1

      It has the least amount of front to back shake for all desks I've tried.

    What was your favorite two leg desk for front to back stability?

      IMovR's Lander was quite solid. But not as solid as 4 leg.

    Hey, buddy!
    I found you about the keyboard video, I have exactly the same needs as you for a keyboard, mechanics, brown switches, full block of numbers, multimedia.
    What kind of keyboard do you end up using?
    I've been using SteelSeries Apex 7 for a long time it's great, but my fingers started getting sore from it because it's too tight on the blue switches. So I'm looking for a solution and I've settled on the G915, but I realize that I don't need the extra macro keys and will get in the way.
    Or Keychron K5 SE, I see you are still using it, right?

    • @JosephKim
      @JosephKim  Před 2 měsíci +1

      I had Keychron K5 before and upgraded to K5 pro and have been loving it!
