Some people use two drawer file cabinets to support
such make-shift desks.
One thought I have always wondered about would be to
get some surplus cubicle parts and assemble a
workspace in my basement using those pieces, of course
the requirements would look like this:
- Low-cost
- Easy to assemble
- 30" desktop/worksurface
- L-shaped at a minimum
- overhead shelf might be nice
- ample cable cutouts
- decent looking
- low-cost ;^)
I suspect the real problems would be the assembly and
30" desktop/worksurface - I think used cubicles are
quite affordable...
Any one have any exp. with modular office furniture in
the home?
Thanks,
Ken
