FAQ TIME! If any of you have any questions, leave them in this thread and I’ll update it as they are asked :)
Q: What tool was used to round the wood corners?
A: Here in the UK it’s often called a surform, but rasp is also a common name
Q: Isn’t the monitor too high?
A: Slightly. It looks more so on video due to the perspective but it’s still pretty comfortable. It was only mounted there for this video anyway and will be moved somewhere else so I’ll make sure to have it slightly lower this time.
Q: You’ve made loads of custom PCs… which ones to you actually use?
A: Currently I use the brass and leather build for editing at the studio, and the large silent desk PC (the one with the glass front) is at home and used for photo editing and some gaming etc (though to be fair I haven’t played a game since last Christmas so it’s a fringe use case at the moment).
Q: Have you considered watercooling the PC itself?
A: Yes! I went with air cooling as it’s actually pretty decent (I still need to make some minor tweaks) but I do have plans to try watercooling the thing at some point.
Q: Do you plan these videos? I mean do you make blueprints or you just have a general idea what you're gonna do and just make up on the way?
A: I pretty much always just have an idea of what I want in my head, and then think through the process needed to get there, and then make it up as I go along.
Q: Is making CZcams videos your primary/ only job?
A: YEP! I’m so grateful that I can do what is basically my hobby as my actual job.
Q: Are you from the UK or from the US?
A: Very much the UK.
Q: Could you use a hydraulic system to lower the monitor in a more controlled way?
A: Absolutely! It would make it more difficult to push upwards though, so keep that in mind.
love your videos!
I have a question , my fan goes to 100% for 10 seconds when I turn on my PC. why is this happening? is this something that the computer does by default?
Would you be able to make an invisible desk using recycled materials
@@Parsafari That's not really on topic but ok xD it's totally normal. Most systems start the fans high speed and then ramp it down to get over any starting inertia problems.

Imagine how confused thiefs would be when trying to rob this man's house, all electronics are hidden in some secret compartment where they can't be seen and nobody would look. All they see is a fancy desk that has nothing on it, a living room with no TV and a kitchen that has no oven or fridge.
I'm confused why Americans and British say 'Aluminum' differently.
@@wambo4266 It's spelled different too. The Brits spell it Aluminium, which explains their pronunciation, but I've got no clue where the spelling difference came from.
@@Leigh_1302 Telegraphs were sent by the letter, which meant that every letter to a message added to the cost of the telegraph message. This resulted in the removal of certain "excess" letters in words such as "colour" or "judgement", which led to them becoming "color" and "judgment", respectively. I assume the same thing occurred to the word "Aluminium" which then became "Aluminum".
@@janrupertalfeche8959 how often was the word aluminium used that it was simply too costly to go on? oh great heavens America is going in debt
considering it was one of the most useful metals in the 1800's and beyond, probably a lot.

This channel is genuinely the highest quality DIY channel I've ever seen. Awesome job to the creator.
Also, I'm trying to imagine how mind-blown guests would be upon entering this genius' extremely aesthetic house -- and then finding that he'd made most of the masterpieces on his own. Astonishingly well done.
Try Stuff made here and Simone Giertz if you like this kind of channel! Especially Simone has some really awesome builds
Small idea for improvement to the desk PC. Before adding the veneer to the top, cut out a round, properly sized, hole in the aluminum off to one side. Then after the veneer is in place, mount a wireless charger to the underside of the veneer. It would be invisible from the top of the desk, and you could set your phone down on the "invisible spot" to charge while your on the computer.
*no*
That is a really cool idea. The only caveat will be the strength of the veneer itself, as most chargers won't be flush with the veneer
@@Nippontradamus veneer is surprisingly strong for its thickness. I have no doubt it would be strong enough to hold a cell phone
I'm currently planning a build and your idea will for sure be implemented. I hate cables so anything I can hide in the table, I will
Ikea has a fitting induction charger for this
I love how this is a tutorial like we're actually going to build it
it's like with Linus Tech Tips. if he makes it like a tutorial people are: Why is it like a tutorial? if it is not than he gets lots of hate because one rich guy with a lot of free time wants to also build such a thing or people may think it was faked.
@@lachante5171 that makes sense

The monitor could also function as a soft filtered top-down LED light when folded up for you're reading/working on the desk

Do thieves even carry an actual PC that can easily weigh more than 10kg?
@@faultline3936 well usually they have a car outside so they only have to carry it a few metres to the car.
If you're a thief and you're stealing tables, I think you should rethink your career choices. Not even those dufus thieves from Home Alone would steal a table 😂
This is so beautiful. Aesthetic simplicity. Carefully conceived and crafted in a Scandinavian style. I really adore it. Thank you so much.
Being a furniture designer and wood worker myself, I think it's a brilliantly executed idea. I could build one, but have no problem with my PC and monitor showing. I'd have to weigh if it's worth all that trouble. But I'm sure more than one or two people have or are going to build it. And frankly, the bracket system idea has solved a problem I have been trying to work out on another project. This man is really, really talented. Kudos to him for sharing it, whatever his income!!!

This dude needs to start his own company. I would actually legitimately buy a lot if what he makes
So you want him to make a hole ass company so that you can buy 1 table and shelf from him. see i dont think that is a valuable business model.
And while this is cool, its never gonna be what most people want or need when they go buy a pc, and it's gonna be expensive in material and crafting.
You would have more luck with hiring somone with crafting experience and get one costume made for you, it wil end up cheaper too

Yeah and with the watercooling it is absolutely silent too! And with excellent temps. This guy is a magician.
The next level will be a motorized hinge for the monitor, that open it when you hit the power button :-)
Nice one .😊👍👍👍
not gonna lie, based on previous builds that's exactly what I expected after watching the 'part 1' desk build! Whilst this is great, I'm slightly disappointed it's not motorised!
That's not a bad idea actually 😂
Measure the display wattage draw. So if it sleeps or is turned off it automatically folds up
next level itll be a laser projector putting an image directly into your retina
The YT algorithm randomly led me to your channel. Wow!!! I thoroughly enjoyed watching your content. The ps5 slim and the invisible computer desk and monitor shelf vids were a joy to watch being built. Tyvm!!!!
If you make the screen open from front to back (bottom first) you can attach an aluminium plate to the VESA support and it will be back the monitor when full opened.
You can add then some LED strips like the Corsair ones and create a Philips hue like effect, being able to extend the image colors dynamically for a better immersion affect, specially if you polish that aluminium plate or set a white skin into it.
Meanwhile my work desk looks like a damn jungle that had an attempt of being swept.
so does this XD
Omg chef pk
I made your senku cola and it was 🔥 lit
Relatable
If someone asks is research material, and it needs to be arranged in a way that resembles a mess.
Next level: make it motorised so it lowers itself when turning on the PC....
How about a simple catch release? Add a pneumatic spring for a door to slow it down and make it move smoothly. You'd still need muscle power to put the monitor back up in the shelf, but at least it would lock itself in once you did.
This would be an upgrade whether you signal it with the presence of mains power or trigger it by hand. Just not having to fumble for the catch when putting the monitor back up would make it worthwhile.
There are many actuators on the market that would do this and easily handle the weight, would be a cool upgrade to the shelf.
Magnet
The monitor would have to have ambient lighting strips behind it as well...
Thats still sooooo much effort... Like turning on the PC
This PC and monitor setup is so awesome, it turned out amazing, both the shelf and the desk
Wow. In the beginning I didn’t even notice the wires snaking through the plants. That really blows me away. You are really smart and good with this stuff, keep it up!

Just love your work bro 👌
I just found your channel today and I absolutely love your tutorials. There was something captivating (besides the quality of the content) from the very first video I watched and I'm just now realizing it's your voice and and how eloquent you are. You remind me of those voice over guys from Nat Geo and more... Your voice was literally made for that.
This is so ingenious, elegant, and comes together so nicely. I envy people that can think this way!
Some thoughts I had after watching this:
• Add an external USB port linked to the monitor's usb hub port to the top shelf. You can make the external Hard Drive look like a book(s?) sitting on the shelf.
• Create a fake potted plant (or something) to act as a usb hub sitting on the desk. Oooh maybe make a potted mushroom like your old mushroom lamp design. Would love to see an update to that.
• Even though the surface is aluminum find a way to install a wireless charging area on the desk. So you can just set your phone / headphones case down and charge them without plugging them in. Maybe put the wireless charger in the fake potted plant?
• Hide speakers somewhere in this impossibly clean build.
Speakers could go neatly in the two msotly empty spaces next to the monitor
I was wondering why not go through the added effort of putting some wireless chargers in the desk as well. Too bad he didn't do that before putting on the wood laminate on the top.
@@nerdhector6190 could work nicely, though I would imagine that acoustics would be a problem, as the speakers would be firing into the desk, then bounce back up into the shelf, creating a bit of echo. If they were flip out too, though, that would be mind bogglingly amazing
@@siddharthnair4720 You could also mount them at an angle, if the driver size doesnt get limited too far by that.
pop out would work, but then you have no volume behind it … or you pop the chamber out as well, but then you limit it further in size (half the area is being taken up by the wall brackets anyway)
maybe … what baout those active speakers, that Tech Ingredience used to create flat speakers with? if you make the "speaker board" detachable and hinge out … ?
Linus did a hidden wireless charging point on their hidden desktop project.. it was alot of effort and not something the average person can do with normal-ish tools. They had to cut it to like 1mm thick etc.
Well, that's definitely not what I expected when I saw "Invisible monitory". I thought there was gonna be some projector witchcraft onto the wall.
Same. I actually thought there might be some huge glass surface where the desktop would be projected.
Yes, nice video but this should be called foldable monitor or something
Actually your not really far off, China has already developed a virtual monitor, keyboard and mouse, it woks on holographic or hologram technology and is all available for a price, fact is, anything you want is available if the prices is right. always remember, by the time the general public sees advancements in technology it's already 35 - 40 years old. if not more. Nothing is as it appears to be on the surface... It never was.

"Now the mouse and keyboard are still rather obvious, so I'll be making my own that can be handily stowed away in thin air using some sheet aluminium, some really nice looking hardwood veneer, 3 paperclips, 4 potted plants and this cat."
i mean he could make that the table hide both
You've been watching Matt for a while too, Eh?. It's the, "...and this cat." that make it hilarious.
I actually read the in matt's voice and its even more hilarious.
He just needs a wireless mouse and keyboard ALSO Razer has a wireless mouse that doesn't need charging it comes included with a mouse mat and as long as the mouse is on the mat or only off the mat for a few seconds it will work so he could thin out the aluminium where he would want to place the mouse mat to make the distance between the mat and the mouse as close as possible so it can keep the mouse powered up and then when not using the peripherals stowaway them in a nearby cupboard or drawer or place it on the shelf
He could just use a built in touch pad and this keyboard LOL czcams.com/video/Zq6-2_mk0CI/video.html

Great video matt 👌👍🏼👍🏼
I watched this whole thing knowing damn well I will never do this.
Y - Same
Like most people I think x)
Like every DIY video I watch...
you and everyone else...
It's an inspiring video. This means that you can create something similar, even at zero cost (outside of work), if the design of your furniture allows it. For example, I managed to incorporate a computer (an entire metal box) into the leg of an ancient table with a wooden door. I needed convenient access to memory card readers, DVD, USB, laser printer, etc. The wireless keyboard, mouse, headphones, etc. can be hidden in the same space.
The advantage of such a method is that, for example, in the event of a PC failure, you can conveniently replace the entire cabinet. You don't have to disassemble the table. I have the monitor loosely placed on my desk, but this is the only visible PC peripheral. Everyone has to evaluate which solution suits them, and this is partly due to the inspiration from the video.
Every tech youtuber is trying to make a clean setup...
But till now, no one has ever come so far!!

Was thinking there might be one of those transparent LCD screens against to wall
that's why I clicked XD
I was expecting there to be a screen inside the table when i saw the first video, and you'd flip it up like a laptop
Projector on the wall
Another added benefit of the monitor in the shelf is that you could make the screen completely white and fold it back into the shelf as an overhead lighting fixture!
this is genius
I would also build in some led stripes under the shelf for lightning your desk when the monitor is in use.
And don't forget some stripes on the back of the monitor for ambiance lightning.

Very nice! I like this even more than the pc bit. Very practical to have your entire desk surface open.
Oh my god it's Ben. It's so cool you guys all watch each others videos.
Thanks Ben!! :D
Its very pretty, But I think if you are going to use a monitor like that having some positional control would be nice - even just a little bit of tilt adjustment would be useful. So for me use a monitor/tv wall mount type arrangement between your hinged surface and the screen - so when its down you can easily get that monitor to a better position for you (even better one of those highly adjustable arms but that is much harder to hide in the shelf- I think you would need a tube or two for it slide down so the shelf becomes not attached to the wall but held up off the table -good for hiding the wires in though).
If you are going for such a fixed position setup the laser style projector built into the PC desk or Shelf seems a sleeker option to me. You need nothing but the tiniest window in the surface to let the projector project onto the wall or a projector screen. So its really really hidden - and putting in all those fans in the PC desk means quiet cooling of the projector is already sorted (as projectors tend to be quite small with loudish fans but the desk already has way more airflow than needed diverting a little won't hurt.)
Practical???
1st: Nonadjustable monitor, what a burden to the neck and lower back (because your body is the one to adjust to the monitor)
2nd: Moving it is mortal sin (so much work IF your gonna "Clean, Repair or Move" it.)
3rd: All that Construction work, for minimal Benefits (purely Aesthetics)
Dunno bout Practical bro.
@@DIYPerks would not it be better, if you use some sliding mechanism to get the screen closer to the wall ? I ( and I think 99.99991% of ppl) like to place my screens as close to the wall as possible.
The thing that bothers me is at 12:15ish.. there is a missing screw in the top left of the leftmost wall bracket. Which is funny as the section immediately before is about adding other brackets for strength. Otherwise the whole design etc is amazing. I love the clean feel of this set of projects.

As a refinement, have you thought of using a door piston (car hatchback) to slow the monitor coming down? Some kitchen door hinges can add a spring-loaded open effect that might be unpleasant. I so admire your channel and your creativity.
Imagine going into his house and it’s empty and with a simple button everything comes out at the same time
First to find his house we need to find a switch lol
Fucking Mickey mouse house
I have seen this kind of house where the bed is hidden behind a staircase, the whole bathroom hidden in drawers which are opposites to the kitchen (so you can either access the kitchen or the bathroom), among many more clever tricks to live well in a very tiny space.
basically an irl redstone house
not button, but BOOT-EN
these designs are getting too pretty! props to you mate, this is impressive work
Absolutely! I would really love to see the monitor be automated, so when you wake the computer from sleep or press a button or something the monitor slowly lowers down.
Love u simon cade!
@@schwimiiiehaiqi5325 ditto
Impossible...
Impossible, is this the real Simaon Cade???!!!!
Man gotta love this guy work and engineering
this is brilliant, your channel is great!
Linus Tech Tips : Project Zero Cables - The Cleanest Desk Setup EVER
DIY Perks : Hold my cable disguise
And an ad from PIA to top it off! lol
My dumb ass thought you were gonna put it into the wall and paint over the screen 🤣
Hahahahhaa and my dumb a*s though he was going to use a projector instead. I mean that the top wood layer thing was the projector. But not he had a complete desktop mounted in to it haha
Same here. Maybe he should make one that built into the wall and put some transparent sticker to it
I had a similar thought, that he was going to strip off some sort of wallpaper 😬
Thought maybe it was just a really good fecking monitor and that he had his wall as the background to give it the invisible look lmao
@@acacius9903 The problem with using a projector is that it can only make the surface brighter and not darker. So if you want good contrast and dark blacks in your image, you need a room so poorly lit that the wall looks black when the projector is off.
wow just amazing, I just recently discovered your channel and I have loved every single video I have watched so far. Impressive level of creativity🔥🔥🔥
Beautyfull isn't the right word !!! Its absolut amazing and blow my mind....
"However, this monitor isn't actually..."
Expected him to say "...a monitor."
"This monitor is actually...A hat."
@@kparker84 And also, hidden under the hat, is another mini oled monitor that can easily fold in when not needed. Nice.
It's a cake?
Hey! Vsauce, Michael here..
Matt: "So after successfully building my computer into a handmade desk to conceal its existence.... and after hiding my monitor in a custom made shelf with a swing out.... Now you may be wondering how I hide the mouse and keyboard.... I use this shoebox labeled 'mouse and keyboard for hidden computer set up" by my feet."
“It’s a mouse disguised as a common real dead mouse sitting on my innocent table.”
@@mroberts2738 LOL
It would be possible to build a roll out shelf under the desk for the keyboard and mouse or just have a wireless keyboard hidden behind a painting and the mouse hidden under/in a potted plant lol
@@jacktringoli3299 Good ideas. I, too, was thinking of making a sliding shelf for under the table's cavity, like a spring release drop down style shelf.
a hidden touchpad and touchscreen keyboard would actually be so dope in this build
Awesome project, looking forward to build one myself. That's an awesome startup idea btw!
This was awesome! Love the creativity with your builds. Def subscribing
Now the final step will be to hide the mouse and keyboard so the thiefs won't wonder why there's only a mouse and keyboard in your house.
easy, add a laptop holder thingie to make it look like you put a laptop there
Or just have a drawer and put them in there out of sight.
@@FallenLostBoy that sounds so cool dude
Make a motorized drawer from an old computer cd reader, built in to the shelf
could make a drawer in the front of the desk that’s flush and push to open. it would be hidden quite nicely and not distract from the overall design.
This totally owns the Linus ”No Cable" build with a monitor cable sticking out at the end.
That was SO triggering
Linus noob nerd
Linus setup is way better as he can still upgrade monitors way easier and more customisation can be done
@@Bigma6400 Well, you just replace the top shelf on this one and you could add more monitors, but the point was that it’s cleaner.
@@bcusbcus "just replace the top shelf" :D
Awesome work!! You really have good ideas!
You sir are a talented craftsman. You've earned my subscription. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 That is so awesome what you made.
It's time for this video's sponsor: The aluminium industry
I was up to calling him an agent of big aluminum.
With one "i" only, lol.
The bauxite rate is good.
no. the AL Lou Minium industry.
Linus tech tips: we're build a hidden pc
This guy: I'm about to destroy this man's whole career
Yeah, but I saw both videos and this one was uploaded the same day an hour before.
@@cristian44137 Linus new desk video isn't uploaded yet, the video you are talking about is just a clean desk build. The pc is next to the desk in the video. His Desk pc is still in the making. I still think that desk pc from Linus will be far superior than the one diyperks build.
@@2297william They also have similar but different goals.
DIYP made an "invisible" PC, LTT is probably going to have the top part made of glass so you can see every component.
The main thing they have in common aside from being desk PCs is that they both aim to be thin.
@@squngy0 true but I still can't appreciate diyp build, he used a ton of fans which are more expensive than a custom watercooling loop. And the gpu even throttles at max temp 🙈
Linus was later,and more a hack job,which is typical Linus.
Just discovered this channel, and I can't stop watching 😍 🔥🔥
