Once I get my camera in order I'm goint to post in this thread. I have a desk that has been used by a woman who has had three (or maybe four) comets named after her and it was made by a carpenter. She was a swell person. They say she "didn't talk in eleven languages" but she was like a grandmother to me. I loved my grand-aunt and once I'm done with being banded (which will hopefully be soon) I will post the desk.

wolrah posted:$35-50k installed according to https://www.cepro.com/news/coelux_the_40000_fake_skylight_everyone_will_want/ I don't know that I like it. When you're sitting at your computer and hear the cops busting the front door and you eat all your dope and jump out the window but it's a wall. Not a good scenario! It wasn't even the cops just the pizza guy knocking.

I don't know if it's been mentioned ITT but a reminder to people comfortable with using zip-ties (which they should be unless they re-route cables like every week); these things exist: (I worked in a place where people would regularly use zip-ties all day long and only one person I showed them to had any idea what they were. I guess that's why I found a whole bag in the garbage bin  )

Considering I've had several cleaners and colleagues do their darndest to (unwittingly) tear them off my desk at work I'd say a power strip is fine.

NicelyNice posted:Are arms rests supposed to fit under the nesk? I always thought they were supposed to be roughly even with desk level When my dad was looking for a good office chair he just went to a store meant for businesses and bought one. The only catch was all the prices listed were VAT-free. (Not in Japan though.)

Head Bee Guy posted:i keep banging my loving knee on my cheapo 3M keyboard tray. I plan on replacing the knee-seeking hand crank knob with a nut, but my i still smash my meniscus into the mechanism. Anyone fix this problem without just buying more poo poo? Hand crank to nut is a natural progression.

Saukkis posted:I've had a monitor above the main monitor for a long time and it has been a non-isue. When the top of the main monitor is at eye level, which seems to be the ergonomy recommendation, it takes minimum effort to glance above and if you want to look at it longer it's easy to lean back on the chair. The side monitor is bigger strain on the neck. /

I only clean my stove top when someone's coming over because... well it being dirty makes zero difference to anything  (And it takes like literally a minute because it's a stove.)

Here's my temporary set-up: There's a slightly more conventional desk in my vestibule waiting for someone to carry it into this room with me. It's oak and very quite heavy. (This isn't actually as uncomfortable as I thought. I'm sitting on my sofa and my back hasn't gone yet in the two weeks this has been my desk!)
