Have a look on my New project, i hope you guys will like it.. 🪛🪚🛠🔩👷♂
czcams.com/video/Hr8rnztbaWw/video.html
Now this is actually DIY with tools that most of us would have, and not $5k worth of tools TY for the tutorial and the list of materials at the end
You are welcome 🙂 that was the main purpose!! No fancy tools required.. just build it ✌🏼
You can make a trip to harbor freight and get a jig saw and drill for a total of $40. I built a Sim rig for Sim racing and drifting and with having no wood skills it came out amazing. Diy doesn't have to be a hand saw and screwdriver.
i know DIY is not meant to be done only with hand saw or screw drivers...
it was done for the people who thinks power tools are compulsory do build any diy project. i have my basic power tools .. but i tried to show even you have these hand tools.. you can build this too!! without any hesitation or must buy some power tools.. no offense brother, purpose is different of this video. :)
and i love to see your SIM racing setup.. even i am gona make it too.. its in the pipeline :)
I also made a table for myself a year ago, the wood was cut in a store to the size I needed, and the only tools I had to buy were wood drills. I borrowed a drill and an electric jigsaw from friends. The hardest thing for me was putting it all together in a small apartment. Spent $30-40 on all materials
Big thumbs up for an honest video. An actual DIY project with no nonsense like, "now I'll run it through my $3000 planer," or "Just use this biscuit joiner... links in the description!" .
You... my man!! have actually got my point of this video!!!! BIG THANKS!
Nice elegant work! The same song for 22 minutes was a bit much though 😂
Thanks 😅 & I apologise for the song, I was in a hurry to upload this project lol
TBH I like the repeating song...watched the whole thing with my head bopping😂Kept playing it when I did inventory on what I had on this list...besides the wood, Im good to go🤣...it's my motivation!
What i love about this is that this is literally such a cheap DIY project, give tips like using painters tape without the need for clamps, no planers, joiners, just straight up skill and patience. Respect
Thank you soo much, appreciate that,
That was the main purpose, people stops because of not having fancy tools..
That's why I showed, even with simple tools you can make anything if you want to!! (Of course not saying about engineering works) lol
have a look on a new project.. i hope you'll like it :)
Nói hay lắm chú
Perfect project for my 12 yr old son and me. Thanks for the great how to
Glad it was helpful.. yes plz try it.
You will be satisfied in the end..
And thanks man!! More on the way!!
Best DIY video I’ve seen. Didn’t use an entire shop worth of tools or space.
that was the plan and the purpose..!!! so an Average human being/diy guy can build it too (easily at home).... not everybody can afford thousands of $ worth of equipment & space...
glad you liked it brother... thanks man!! more on the way.. :)
This is the real deal, i was thrown off doing stuff like this because most videos people have hundreds and thousands of dollars in equipment and I've always wanted to find a video like this.
Thanks!
I appreciate that brother & I'm glad that becomes helpful!!! That was the main purpose of this video, that if you Wana build something you don't have to buy soo many equipment first .
Thanks again brother.. check my other videos too they are made by the same process..
Awesome…but, I am still using my Mitre saw. Simple and strong and cable managed, paint.. filler.. inspiring..I am inspired
Of course if you have a mitter saw or any power tools.. just build it !
The purpose of this video was to show people that you can build anything with Basic tools too.. if you wanna build something.. people who don't have power tools or proper workbench can build this too.. without any hesitation..
And thanks man ... I'm glad you liked it..!! Meant alot ❤️
the music put me to sleep, and im totally here for it, great build!
apologies my friend for the music... made in a hurry. glad you like the build!!! thanks man
Great video thanks for sharing. Getting back to making our own stuff instead of giving Wally World all our money for junk is a big goal of mine, very inspiring!
Exactly...Right on!! That was the main purpose, if you can easily build according to your needs...then why pay the hefty price... Thanks man, appreciate that ..
True meaning of Do it Yourself. Job well done
Thanks brother!
The table turned out quite good, it looks good. A year ago I made myself an ordinary rectangular table to replace the awkward corner one, and spent 30-40 dollars on it. As a tabletop I used a wall from an old cabinet, which I got for free, and assembled a frame from 50x50mm wood. My table came out good in my opinion, but I still didn’t think through some aspects or they appeared after assembly and some of them cannot be changed without additional investments
I also have an idea to make a new table, which will be corner, but more comfortable, I’m thinking of using metal as the frame material, but this is in case one of my friends has a welding machine, and also buy a cheap kitchen countertop as a table surface
Thanks man.!! i appreciate that...
well obviously you have to add a tiny amount of investment into it, if you are using some used or saved materials.. even thought after 30- 40 dollars, i bet i must be better than prebuilds ones, coz its custom made according to your need and space.. i endorse everyone to better build it then buying costly ones, it's just a basic table, no rocket science in these stuff lol. ones again glad a have a fellow DIY guy here. i hope i iwll be able to help in future.. :)
REMEMBER: Embrace the imperfections.!! :) thank you
Metal frames are good and sturdy, but it will surely cost you a lot then wood ones. but if you know how to weld clean, and cost is no issue. then GO for it.!!
Loveit, is the first real wood built with really basic tools!
Thanks man!!! appreciate that!!
Lovely desk! I'm currently trying to design my own to build it and by far your video has been the most informative (without the heavy machinery.)
thank you brother...Glad it was helpful!
build it with (no power tools and heavy machinery) was the main purpose :)
only patience is required... go for it bro..!!
Thank you for this awesome DIY! I recently did my own PC build and have a temporary desk that doesn't fit my "Cyberpunk 2077" theme. This is going be a perfect way for me to get the kind of desk i want with custom lighting and colours etc. I cant wait to build it! So glad your video came up in my feed! New subscriber here!
It's Great to hear that.. Go for it!!!!
Thanks brother
Love to see the results & I'll put RGB lights too in the upcoming desk setup.
Thank you for subscribing ❤️
@@LEOKHAN I'm looking forward to seeing your video with RGB!
I was just looking for a way to build my own table for my Set Up Gamer, this video fell from the sky, you're amazing dude, it's an amazing job
Glad you liked it and helped you start building it...
thanks man, it meant alot.
Actually, been wanting to get into some simple woodworking as a hobby. This might be the sort of project I try to do down the line after some practice and learning.
Start your hobby brother.. if you think a lot it will stuck as a never ending project.. it's that simple that you only need to cut straight by hands. (Patience is required only) Lol
And thanks man !!
How do you cut straight wirh a hand saw. I always ens up drifting away from the mark
slow n steady cuts by Marking the lines and then following them...
i use to have same problem of drifting away from the lines..
i appreciate the craftsmanship!!
Thank you bro !!
It turned out better than what I expected. Good job.
Thanks thanos!! 🙏🏻
Nice desk. The frame is what I'm going to do, with some modification(s). I have 4 systems on my desk (servers and stuff). Going to build a rack under one end to hold them. Current desk is a solid core door 80" wide x 32" deep. With a copy of your build and my additions, I think it'd clean things up quite a bit. thank you
Thanks man.. yes go for it.. basically i made it to hold 2 systems under on each sides and you can add 2 more on top too.. your solid core door is perfect for holding all the weight easily & you can add 2 drawers too each side.. i could have build it more cleaner then this.. but i had to kill my (Perfectionism OCD) a bit in this project and Failed to succeed LOL
hope you'll enjoy building it .. thanks again. !
Right now I need to build a desk for my PC in village house for this summer. Looking for ideas. Looks like corporate spyware algorhytms brought down on me your video.
Looks kinda possible for me.
Now, let's watch it til end.
UPD:
- I made my gaming stuff by myself!
- Boo, poor loser!
- It's custom made gaming device. *wojack smile*
- Wooah!
Very entertaining to watch, and very good looking desk. Will stay tuned for updates
Thank you buddy .. glad u liked it !!
More things on the way !
have a look on a new video..! i hope you'll like it :)
Respect love the use of hand tools Great job
Thanks mate.!!! It was on purpose, otherwise people wouldn't start making it until they got every fancy tool & a workshop.
I'm glad you liked it .. thanks again !
More on the way
Freaking awesome !! even though I have more than basic power tools. I found this video extremely enjoyable.
Glad you enjoyed it!!!!! Thanks brother
Congrats ! ! ! Nice job.
Thank you! Cheers!
Love the build, sir
thank you !!
Very nice. This is a good project for my son and I. Thanks for sharing.
You are very welcome brother... 🤗 Thanks for watching
You definitely didn't make it easy on yourself. That many screws aren't required with all the glue (for those considering their wallets). Very nice job though. Someone send this man a circular saw and impact driver at least please.
lol thanks a lot man..!! :D that was intentionally made on purpose,
Without power tools..!!
so people who have basic household tools can build this too.
that amount of screw were used for solid rigidity, they are very cheap :D
once again thank you!! i already have jigsaw and some power tools lol
@@LEOKHAN oh haha! That makes it even more awesome then! A lot of people like to make excuses, I for one am a sucker for all the tools and toys. This proves hard work and patience pays off. Very inspirational!
Now you got my point.. exactly!! no excuses if no power tools..
if u wana build it .. just build it.. :D that was the purpose.. im glad you liked it..
i appreciate that a lot !!! thanks again man..
Dear god once i saw the hand saw i understood
Crazy I’m actually doing something very similar. I’m also using a hand saw, and a very limited space. Excellent work he did!
Thats what DIY is......super cool god bless you❤
Thank you brother.. May God bless you too ❤️😇
This DIY gaming desk project is so budget-friendly and doable with basic tools! Can't wait to give it a try with my kids 😀 #DIYdesk
it really is!! plz have fun.. hope your kids will love & learn building it.. & THANK YOU!!!
not bad. love the rbgs
one simple but major addition to tools for this job would be a carpenter's square. you can pick one up for $5-10(USD) itll help ensure your lines are straight, cuts are square, and alignment is true. Also, from a structural standpoint, you could use only three screws in a triangle shape and it'd be just a strong as four screws.
thanks man.. appreciate that alot..!
brother i already used that carpenter's square in the video :)
and yes i agree about the usage of 3 screws instead of 4, i have a little OCD problem lol & sorry didnt get Rgbs?
espectacular ... 100% éxitos en tu canal
Thanks man!!! ❤️
Well done !!!
Thank you!!!
Nice one! You show that people don't need all the dewalt or milwakee setup to make great things.
Absolutely brother... That was the main purpose of this video... Thank you !!!!!
Fantastic video!! I'm close to move out from my parents house and the only thing left to buy was a desk but none of the available ones in the market complied with my expectations. This handmade definitely does!!! It's very easy to made it. Thanks for the video!
That is awesome! I'm glad that it suits your needs & expectations!!! Yes it is very easy to make.. go for it..! With some patience lol. You are welcome brother
Awesome video, loved everything about it!!!!
Can wait to see more diy ideas!🔥
Where did you get the MDF board?
Glad you liked it!! have a look on my latest project :) more on the way..
from a Wholesale dealer of Mdf boards, cant find it in hardware stores at that price.
Simple and very good work, an inspiration for who are about to try
Thats one sturdy table for a computer set up
Yes rigid from all sides..
Thanks man!!
Very nice. Even the cable management is better than a lot of store bought desks. Plenty of room left to add you own drawers or a mount to sit the PC under the desk.
I'm sure it's a very satisfying desk to sit at.
Thanks buddy!!! I'm glad you liked it!!
Yes it is designed to be used with lots of space on top & bottom, 2 PCs can be mount on both sides & drawers too.. lots of things are on the way...
Stay tuned for the setup!
@@LEOKHAN I shall...👍
have a look on the new project..!! i hope you'll like it.. thanks
Brilliant work.
THANKS MAN!!
stay tuned for more :)
new project uploaded.. have a look :)
Отличный верстак .
Thanks
Looks great!!! Would be great if you added something to easily disassembling it in case you want to move the table to another room. Awesome job.
Thanks man!!
well for moving to another room.. i've used some Caster wheels..
for completely disassembling it we have you use bolts and nuts, or hinges.
its very light weight, moves very freely on wheels. :)
Bro well done thank you for sharing❤
Thank you brother for watching. I hope it serves you well. ✌🏻 Stay tuned, more on the way..
Great job 👏
Big thanks
thank you a lot for it.
You are most welcome.!
Super good l❤it ....looking for more informative videos like this one 🎉
Glad you liked it.. more are on the way... Thank you!!
Parabéns pelo projeto. Minha mesa do computador foi feita por mim. Para o tampo eu utilizei uma porta de 2,10m x 0,70m.
obrigado irmão. que bom que você usou uma porta em vez de um bloco sólido de madeira. é econômico, certo?
Nice project!! congratulations!
Glad you like it! Thankyou..!
Good job masked man!
Thanks Mate.. !! 😂
No shop full of power tool. Just a saw, and a basic drill.. Now that's DIY
Thank You man!!!
Beh ottimo lavoro complimenti!
Grazie mille !!
Definitely good job
Thank you!!
Other than using drywall screws for wood... Looks good.
we don't have drywalls.. we use these for wood only..
thanks man. glad u liked it :)
Wow mr Ikea! Great job
Hahah Thanks! 😃
Great desk, also, i think i noticed a uh cooldown in cs2. But i could be wrong. That part made me chuckle. But great desk, i need a new one and i think i might try my hand at building one
Good call! Haha yes CS session is a must!! And thanks bro, plz try to build, you are Gona enjoy but patience is required lol
amazing work. I'm not an expert, but I recommend having a ph2 drill bit for your drill so you don't get tired when installing those screws.
Yes I know brother, it was made on purpose with basic household tools.
Good for forearms workout lol 😂
@@LEOKHAN Ah ok 😂
Gotta be careful with that though. You could end up like me and start dealing with Carpal Tunnel. Screwing stuff in like that by hand just isn’t worth it. I do give you props for predrilling though it’s usually not necessary for soft woods like white pine.
yes it is not necessary.. but it keeps the pine safe of cracking at the end and it keeps it aligned too.
and these screwing stuff by hand is for those who don't have power tools available..not every body / newbie have to buy power tools just to start building these stuff. :) motivation is necessary
Awesome video and really easy to follow. I was curious why didn’t you go with 2x2 beam instead of joining two 2x1? (My assumptions of the dimensions might be wrong but I hope you got the point. An answer to that would be highly appreciated.
Good question..! i used 2x1s instead of 2x2s because of 2 reasons..
1st is, it will be lightweight and structure will be sleeker,
and 2nd less usage of wood will make it cost effective.
2x1 makes it like a lego to assemble easily. we can surely build it with 2x2s too
i hope i was able to make you understand the purpose behind. :) cheers man thanks for watching.. stay tuned for more !
@@LEOKHAN awesome, that makes sense. I’ll attempt this for sure.
yes plz do..!! love to see the end results..! only 1 thing is needed.. (Patience) :)
Amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
beautyful table bro 🥰🥰👌👌👌👌
Thanks bro✌🏼
I have a similar plan in place for a gaming L-Desk but it uses 2x2s for legs
That's perfect too!!! I tried to save some lumber and cost with 1x2s.. :)
A nice L desk, 30" tall and shelves everywhere.
You might’ve inspired me to get rid of my current desk and make my own! How much do you think this weighs?
Yesss goo for it!! All you need is little patience & in the end,
It's Gona worth it.!!
Don't know the exact weight but it's very lite because of 1x2s.
new project uploaded :)
I love this! but muted.. but I love this!
Apologies my friend... And thank you!!!!!
Ty Mr. Khan
Welcome Mr.Hosein bebany :)
Would this be stable enough to mount monitor swing arms to? Or does that just depend on the tabletop that is selected?
you can use both of them.. if the mount is big enough to open upto 4 inches, then mount on table frame.. if it can't then, you can mount on the table top easily, both are sturdy enough to hold everything, just dont use IKEA cardboard table top lol.
@@LEOKHAN thanks for the reply! Looking forward to starting mine tomorrow, thanks for the inspiration 🔥🙏
you are Welcome brother.. anytime..
go for it... i hope you will like the process of building it.. (patience is required)
Nice
Thanks
How can i build thos then transport it to my ipstairs room? Could i theoretically unscrew parts to disassemble and then reassemble? I have no woodworking knowledge but want to try this.
I would suggest if you have this much space upstairs in ur room. Then build it there.. otherwise yes you can unscrew the upper and lower supporting beams & take it upstairs and assemble it with glue and give it the finishing process & paint it in the room.. everything is possible :)
Начало видео, походка должна быть лунной 😂
any else flabbergasted at all the hand screwing
Where did you get your MDF board from? My local places are much more expensive, but I may be looking at the wrong stores.
I got it from a local wholesale dealer of MDF boards. They are cheaper then the retailers.
Colombia coffee 🎉
Great looking table and simple design. Thanks for sharing! I watched it on mute, the music was giving me a headache, just fyi.
sorry about that music..i was in a hurry to upload lol
thank you for watching.!!
Хороший стол 😎💪
Thanks man!!! ✌🏼
Hi every one, I'm glad i found this desk. Unfortunately, as french guy I don't understand this "8 pieces of Pine/White wood 1x2s by 10 feet" can somebody explain me what 1x2s means ? I don't understand what is it. Can somebody explain it to me with centimeters or milimeters please ? Thank you and have fun building this desk !
1 by lumber is a type of wood that is commonly used in construction. It is available in a variety of sizes, including 1x2, 1x3, 1x4, 1x6, 1x8, 1x10, and 1x12. 1 by lumber is typically made from pine, spruce, or fir. It is a softwood that is relatively inexpensive and easy to work with. 1 by lumber is often used for framing, sheathing, and decking. It can also be used for a variety of other projects, such as making furniture, signs, and toys.
it also comes in 2x2 4x4 etc...
Dimensions & Sizes
1 x Lumber is available in a range of nominal sizes including 1x2, 1x3, 1x4, 1x6, 1x8, 1x10, and 1x12. The actual dimensions of 1 x Lumber include a width of .75” (19 mm) and depths between 1.5”-11.25” (38-286 mm). Lumber comes in typical lengths between 6’-24’ (1.83-7.32 m), and lastly 10 feet is the height of 1x2s lumber. i hope it will help. :)
and thanks for watching ...!!!
@@LEOKHAN You can't be more precise than you did for me ! Thank you a lot ! Have a good day !
you are welcome buddy
I've watched this video about 10 times. My 15 year old boy and I are planning on building it this summer. I do have a miter saw that I'll use for the cuts cause I'm .. well, lazy.
the one question I do have is where do you get that cable duct? I've looked at my local hardware store and on Amazon and can't find one similar to what you have there ..
I'm pleased to hear that..!!! thanks man..!! i hope your son will enjoy the building and learning process... & he will succeed hopefully with you.! :)
well if you have power tools like miter saw, then it's even more a quick process..
but as a 15 year old boy, let him cut some by hands too with full safety.. he must try to cut basic straight cuts.. he'll enjoy it :D
well about those cable ducts.. you won't find it on Amazon or small hardware store,
these are commercially use products, that are very cheap and i think you can find it from a store who deals in commercial products or a wholesale hardware dealer,
i bought it from a wholesaler who only deals in Cable ducts only.
i don't know where you from brother.. but you have to search in a bigger hardware store or a wholesaler .. i hope you'll find it soon
otherwise you can build a duct from 1x2 and 1x4s lumber or plywood too...
@@LEOKHAN Thanks for the info about he cable ducts. I'm in West Michigan. We have a lot of big box stores (Home Depot, Menards, Lowes) but I'm sure I can either fashion something or find something that's not quite as inexpensive but still useable.
My next problem is finding a laminated MDF board! haha - silly inflation making everything not cheap!
Appreciate the feedback! I'll probably build a variation of your desk shelf as well. I just need to figure out the desk first!
And yes, I have used hand tools to do some stuff with my boys already (I have three). They can do some basic hand tool stuff. Can't hurt to keep that muscle memory!
you are welcome brother..
well those Stores must have these cheap things.. they usually have everything available.. i wonder why that's not available easily there.. ill try to find for you..
hahaha the MDF and inflation problem is growing very high lol
specially the Laminated ones...! i think they have banned the chinese suppliers, or stop production locally, otherwise they were easily available everywhere..
i suggest, build it with what's easily and cheaply available to you locally,
plywood + veneer will do the job for table top instead of Mdf if not available. just don't buy the ikea Cardboard table tops lol.
and yes the Desk shelf.. !!! man that was dirt cheap.. i build it from scrap material, and i actually build it in 3 variations.. you can check in the end of the video :D
it's great to hear that your sons are doing this stuff with you.. you are training them Good !!!!! 🙌 usually kids don't like this stuff.. hats off to you brother.
and im available to help here anytime.. stay tuned.. more incoming... ;)
having a hard time sourcing the materials. havent seen any 1x2 10 footers at major stores like lowes and home depot. and really curious where you got that nice looking MDF. thanks so much
The only MDF i am seeing in that size is not evenly close to as nice as the one you have in the video and they are 40-50 bucks just for the MDF sheet
what's your region..? asian market have lowest and cheapest rates on mdf and plywood materials..chipboard are useless, you can check Laminated Plywood..! maybe you can find more cheaply than this laminated Mdf
may be 8 footers are standard there of 1x2s..? it will do the job too..
online, i was unable to find at that cost.. i myself bought it from a wholesaler, only a wholesaler can gives you cheap price, if thats not available then you should check out laminated plywood, or simple plywood then stain it, i hope it will help..
@@LEOKHAN thank you. How many 8 footers do you imagine I’d need
if i remember correctly 8 will do the work, but 8-10 bars for the safe side.!
and you are welcome brother.. always available to help. :)
and whole material list are available in the description for you...
Sick but u need some cable management holes on the desk to streamline it better otherwise sick
Thanks man!!! Yes I was thinking to make some holes.. but in the end I changed my mind because in future I will switch to all wireless peripherals..
Thanks again brother!!
Perfect joooob 👑
THANKS MAN!!!! 🧡
Neat
Thanks!
Good
Thanks
I wanna ask isn't it wobbling if you did not add the X-shape or V-shape structure to the table?
No it didn't even wobble with the wheels installed too.. because if u can see I used 2 upper beams and 1 lower beam that is connected to all 3 sides. With supporting beams on legs too.. so it has become very stiff and gives it rigidity..
@@LEOKHAN that’s really great work! I would like to follow your steps and build one
yes plz.. do Try.. you are gona enjoy it.. it's soo simple
I'm very new to wood DIY projects and am very motivated to be creating my own desk, what is the kind of saw called? I would like to purchase one at my local hardware store
This is just a basic hand saw. U can find it in every store .. or you can check affiliate links under the 2nd DIY video..
Start making anything you are Gona love the end results.. just need patience that's all :)
I would advise you to buy a good quality and sturdy Tenon saw and a mitre box and expect to pay around 50 to 100 bucks. Not only will this give you more accurate cuts but you can also rig in some stop blocks to your mitre box that will allow you to cut repeatable parts to the exact same sizes which is very important in woodworking.
Measuring, marking and cutting to a line without any kind of guide for each of the 4x legs, 2 styles and 2 rails introduces way too much room for error and your table is unlikely to be square and accurate this way and when finished it will stand out like a sore thumb. These type of videos are great for inspiring people into DIY but they rarely go into the actual realities of a newbie trying to build successfully using cheap crappy construction timber and limited tools
your advice is good... but as a newbie let him master the basics of measuring
and cutting and some experimentals errors, it teaches a lot..
after that eventually everybody goes after the best tools available..
So, depending on where in the world you are this will be MUCH more expensive than $45. In the USA, most MDF boards of that size are at LEAST $60, and that is without the nice woodgrain pattern on top. Add all the rest in and you are looking for at least $200+ for something like this. still nice, but way more than $45. But like I said, that is what it cost for where I am in the USA. I know some countries have much cheaper hardware cost
i am sorry brother i cant understand why in the USA people don't find wholesale dealers for this MDF boards.. it's the cheapest material around the world, in Europe, Africa, Asia even in middle east too.... i think if u can find a Local production manufacturer. the price wont be this high, but it has to be a Local manufacturer. these mdf boards are made from waste.. $60 a board too high.
even 1x2s arnt used as much as 2x4s... but any ways.. i hope you will be able to find one or if u wana use an alternative, a plywood can be used with the veneer, its gona be more cheaper then this i think... or plywood is costly too there..???? just wana know.
any ways.... thanks for the visit and comment brother.. i hope you liked the process :)
Oh man, looks like I have a project coming up…
let's do this..!!
How sturdy do you want your desk?
Yes.
I can't find the table top anywhere.. I would like one that is 70x35.
you mean there is no store who provides Laminated MDF boards there..???
it's impossible brother... if u cant find a Laminated one.. you can use plywood and apply Veneer of your choice...
still its MDF boards are available whole around the world easily.. i mean its waaayyy cheaper than a Solid wood top.
Nice, my guy. It does NOT look lightweight...but great work, and easy construction.
Thanks man!! It doesn't look lightweight, but believe me I can move it with 1 hand..
Thanks again bro
Где подсветка?
Почему системный блок внутри пространства стола не повесить? Место много, просто так что ли
В целом задмка не плохая, но доработать надо
подсветка будет добавлена в будущем видео по настройке,
и да, система будет стоять на каждой стороне стола, она предназначена для этой цели, по 2 системы с каждой стороны, 1 для игр, 1 для редактирования/стриминга.
какие у вас предложения по улучшению.?

I wonder what kind of modifications it would need to be an L-shaped desk
You will see in the future video .. it's more simple. :)
Great build!!! Only one gripe after all the details shown… you glossed over how you sealed the MDF with super glue.
Not being a DIY’r and not working with MDF, this was the point I perked up when the text stated what was about to happen, then disappointed nothing was shown after showing how to use regular glue fifteen times.
apologies brother, 1stly i forgot to record it at that stage, that's my bad,
and 2ndly it's just a simple step by pouring the super glue on the rough edges and Sand it, then pour the super glue again. 1st it will seal the edges and will become rough, then you have to sand it make it smooth, after that using super glue 2nd time it will seal and give it a Gloss looking finish..
you can see the process in my (DIY DESK SHELF) video where i sealed the legs by same steps..
the step starts from (4 minutes 24 seconds)
once again i apologies for not been able to record it.
i hope you can get the step from my 2nd video.
and thank you brother for watching in complete detail... i appreciate that alot
im here to help.. anytime
@@LEOKHAN Thank you, I'll look for the other video
you are welcome brother..
Great video! However, I could do a thought the looped guitar licks. I ended up meeting my sound just to enjoy the rest of the video. Sorry, I'd rather hear you tell us a little bit about the build.
Sorry about the guitar track. I was just soo motivated to build this desk as early as possible..i didn't had the desk at that time to start producing content and gaming lol. I'll add a voice over next time for sure.. and I'm glad you liked it.. thanks mate.!! More on the way ;)
@@LEOKHAN excellent. I am glad you got the desk done though that'll make a big improvement in your situation. I've subscribed and look forward to seeing more of your videos!
thank you man.. i appreciate it alot!!
Looks nice. But pricing this out at any local big box store, this is definitely more than $45 of materials. Lol.
yes it can be bit different according to region or location..
but still you have to source it from cheapest store available.
still it won't cost you 100s of $ lol
Not necessarily. Depends if you go and buy from those stores on days when there is a sale going on, if the lumber is on the defective side (most hardware stores, especially in the states have a defective wood stock shelf where you can pick up wavy wood for like 10 to 15% off normal price), and if you’ve already go most of these tool laying around the house. Hell. You can even go cheaper and sub out the desktop they use in this build for old pallet wood and DIY yourself a new butcher-block desktop. You can find pallets behind stores and hardware locations. Most of those locations will let you have them free of charge. So materials are out there, you just gotta know where and how to look.
Scusa ma i cavi da dove li fai passare per andare a collegarsi sulla canaletta sotto al piano? Non vedo la necessità
il cavo scorre attraverso il canale portacavi in plastica, che ho installato sotto il piano del tavolo...
Video hay quá
Thank you !!!
That opening shot, are sure thats less then $45 worth of wood?😮
Yes I got it under 45$ it got to 45 after that hardware brackets and wheels..
And I sourced it from a wholesale dealer, not a retailer, this is the cheapest wood available that's why I used 1x2s... Not 2x2 or 2x4s..
Me suena the Animals ? La primera canción?
It's in the description
please do an L shaped desk next
well i was thinking to add an Extension to make it L shaped desk lol..
@@LEOKHAN please do i like this idea
i will try for sure!!
next time actually ill do a corner desk setup :)
@@LEOKHAN i’ll sub
that pc rig deserved a better table
What do u suggest??
こういうのでいいんだよ。
Thank you !
