  • I'm finally back with another desk duild! In addition to many of the same features my previous desk has, like integrated lights, storage and cable management, this time it's also height-adjustable and the design is easy to adapt for other desks as well. Enjoy!

    This is my first time watching one of your videos and I'm honestly just blown away by your attention to detail and craftsmanship. Even something as small as taking the legs off before moving the table top and putting them back on after shows how much you care about the quality of your final product. I also really liked that you repurposed the box to make the bottom of the drawer!
    I started watching desk build videos because I'm trying to figure out my desk - I have a massive corner desk with lots of tech toys on it but my back would prefer it to be sit/stand now that I use it more. I wish I could find a sit/stand converter that met my needs a little more exactly. Custom might be the answer! You're very inspiring =]

    after drooling over your previous table for 2 years, I now have a new table to aspire for. I wish I could have kept it but for my tiny apartment, my projects would be strewn all across the place much to my girlfriend's chagrin, but your build actually inspired me to build an electronics workbench/mini pc/3d printer enclosure out of an ikea wardrobe that could tuck away my current project mess with a close of a door. thank you for the updated table! it looks amazing!

  • @joesurname3568

    Thank you for dimming the footage for those welding shots. It feels dumb to say that a *picture* of someone welding is painfully bright, but, well, it does still bother my eyes when the footage is just raw. Part of it might be a matter of contrasts over time- if my screen is all pure white, it's fine, but if it starts flashing white in a small area, that's where it becomes a problem.
    Your current solution works just fine, but if what I just said lets you realize something even better, then I'm happy to have helped.

  • @AndrewPlumb

    Two additional improvements I’d recommend:
    1. Get a set of heavy-duty caster wheels to mount the desk on, so you can move the desk around the room, have easy access to those windows, etc.
    2. Get a small UPS to mount to the desk to power and protect the more sensitive gear like the computer and any test equipment.
    As an added bonus, with both 1 & 2 implemented, it’s *really* easy to unplug the UPS from the wall, wheel the desk to a different part of the room, then plug it back in without having to power down-then-back-up anything.

    re: welding light in the video, I recently got an HDR monitor for the first time, and one of the requirements of HDR is that the screen needs to be capable of putting out a lot of light to reach the bright end of the dynamic range. Welding flashes didn't used to be a problem for me, but now they are actually very intense. I would still say the main problem is how sudden they are; people will certainly disagree. I appreciate the filter!

    • @PhilVandelay
      @PhilVandelay  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Yes I also think it depends on what situation you watch in. In bed at night with a bright screen I can see the flashes being annoying, but in a well-lit room less so

    Hi Phil, that ply is essentially a fancy formply which gets used for concrete formwork. The phenolic sheet is to prevent concrete from sticking, you can buy it very cheap as formply, bearing in mind the sheets are almost always bowed as it is normally supported by a timber frame. The birch sheets used for furniture are much nicer but also much more expensive.

    • @PhilVandelay
      @PhilVandelay  Před 4 měsíci

      I don't think it's the same stuff you're talking about, these are straight and the ply is very high quality. A lot of people here use this for functional furniture because the material is so durable, it's also quite expensive

      It might not be as far out of reach as you think, maybe watch some beginner/introduction videos about welding on YT. It's easier and cheaper to get into than many people assume!
      That being said you could theoretically build the frame out of aluminum T-slot extrusion which doesn't require welding

    I have to TIG weld a lot of stainless 1.2mm box section like this and oh my god it's such a pain. We don't have a fixture table but the boss still wants perfection. Grinding corners and realising you've gone too far and it's as thick as tin foil so instead of chasing the hole while welding just cut the corner off and replace it xD
