How I Built My New 2022 Desk Setup for Investing! | Productivity Workspace
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 сер 2024
- This is an overview of how I built my productivity desk setup for 2022. I started from a completely empty room and show how I added all the pieces together as they arrived from different suppliers. As I plan to mostly use my desk for productivity and researching for investing purposes, I wanted a completely different feel to conventional desks. In particular, a portrait monitor is important to me which is the main standout when people see my desk.
Also making youtube videos is an important part of my day as well, so items like a microphone boom arm and smart RGB lighting are also neccessary. Of course this is still a work in process and I will defintely most updates as other long lead time items arrive. (Waiting for my acoustic foam!)
None of the items were sent to me and I purchased all items by myself. I've linked the items below if you are interested in purchasing anything for yourself. 3 items are affiliate links and marked clearly for transparency.

My respect to this guy for building most of the main components in the setup instead of paying insane amounts of money on them. Good stuff man
Man great setup, you should be proud. Love how sensible you are, but maintain the additional functionality people suggest. All the best!
Genuinely such a great video! This is the style of camera shooting and editing im trying to learn! excellent work!!!
Thank you so much for this video, this is what have been searching the whole UA-cam for. They all talk about desk setups but don't at least show how it's done.
Pretty cool that you actually showed your use case for a dual monitor setup!
I too like how you showcased cheaper alternatives contrary to most. Ergonofis look amazing without a doubt but the price is a big no no. And, the fact you build your own is both admirable and inspirational -- especially for people who either don't have the money or don't want to spent as much. Well done.
I've seen so many desk setup videos, so far this one is my favorite
"i hope that it kinda gives you inspiration to build your own setup"
Yes it does, appreciate your work
I just liked what you've done, because others are building an extremely expensive setups but you well nailed it, thumps up.
I loved the thing that he don't like buy expensive things if there is a cheaper alternative . It shows he is smart and honest !!❤️❤️
the most honest home office setup that I have watched! Thanks for sharing!
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing your setup it definitely gave me some ideas for my own setup :)
TOtal Respect for you Mate ! i enjoyed this completely
YOUR FENG SHUI OF YOUR WORKSPACE IS GREAT BRO! KEEP UP THE ELEVATION! 🔥
Good to see a setup that is just focussed on work and not gaming. I've been thinking about the portrait monitor idea for a while, so nice to see it in action.
Wow, you have a really nice set up, Great work dude..... thanks
These are the productivity tips that I needed to hear! 💫 Keep rising to be who you want to be! 💫 #keeprising #risingtobe #aswerise
I would recomend upgrading your chair wheeles to the roller blade style and ditch the floor mat. It was the best update I've ever made to my desk.
Dope elbow grease setup! Love cutting costs by putting in the work, and getting a custom look. Personally- all my phone, ipad, PC- are in dark mode including browsers. Its much easier on the eyes especially at night!
That is some real good stuff I needed for the day!
this is so clean and helpful!
Pretty smooth and clean layout!
Very nice. I have T setup as well, and find it perfect for multitasking/slacking off
Oooh love this setup! I got myself a 49in ultra wide monitor and I now really miss my portrait monitor! I’m a lawyer, so drafting on a portrait monitor is the bees knees! Your video has made me remember how much I missed it! Haha
Love the navy blue wall too!
You are so resourceful
Looks good man.
But definitely recommend putting the sub on the floor and not have things in front of the speakers. I know it's an old set, but you'd be surprised how much of a difference properly placed speakers can make.
The sub can interfere with your PC, which you have right below it.
It could even affect your mouse tracking as it vibrates the desk.
Thanks Sam, I have actually noticed the sound doesn't travel directly to me and needs to bounce off surfaces to get to me. Will give your suggestions a go and see how it feels, thanks~!
Solid work
Very interesting that the algorithm brought me here. I've been looking at upgrading my home setup and coincidentally work for St. James's Place.
Really cool set up, great video!
Awesome video, i just purchased my new sit stand desk from desky, i actually went and priced up all the parts individually from your links and it is definitely cheaper but because desky had a promotion on their desks right now i was actually able to buy theirs at a cost of only about $40 more then buying all the parts, if it wasnt on sale then id definitely build one like you have. The only difference was the cable management tray and 8 plug adapter which did cost me more. But i found your recommendation of that desk pad really nice so i literally just ordered one for my new desk. Looks really aesthetic.
Great in depth video, well done :)
Thanks Corbin! I think the tabletop price has gone up since I bought it but Desky's promotion sounded like a good one if it was only $40 more expensive! Good luck with the desk pad, you'll enjoy that it has a grip on the bottom so it doesn't slide around!
Fantastic simple setup!
Looks dope, what you can do is connect the power adapter on the left or right part so cable fall more behind the table leg.
If the cords is long enough offcourse..
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL
great job, new subscriber! looking forward to see what goes into your analysis of the stocks.
Great video!
Great video! I liked the sound quality of your microphone, I am a student that is focused on robotics and wants to build a productivity setup as well
Thanks! I actually graduated in Mechatronics too :) good luck, its a good degree (Y)
vertical monitor combos are the best!
love the market analysis bit at the end haha,
Nice video, great thinking.
Great setup! Would love a new video on ASX and NYSE Stock tips.
such a nice setup.
I do some wood working projects on the weekend and def not a professional but groove made charging 300 plus for the monitor stand is insane. I haven’t look at the quality up close bc I’ll never buy one but it seem like it’s plywood vs a solid piece of lumber. I am with you build your own on this one. Pro tip buy oak stair tread from your Home Depot and the will cut it to your desired dimensions then cut add the 2 inch dowels for leg. stain it and it only cost 30 bucks
Haha well done Mate :) Paint job actually looked quiet pro!
lovely set up
Built, not bought! Love it.
Very nice setup. Even better that you built the desk yourself!
Thank you Ivan! definitely a feeling of achievement once it was all done!
@@trexzar87 thanks for the reply. What are your thoughts about BRN.ASX? A video would be nice. Cheers
A lot of these videos just show a combination of what people purchased but we actually got to see you build it and how there were troubles along the way. Truly amazing!
yeah man these videos actually give you a heads up on the issues one might face if they were to do it themselves, but at the same time it actually looks fun to do (minus the money you'd be spending lol)
Beautiful video. It was so good to see a good setup that did not have hundreds of dollars of grovemade products. I love that you were budget consciences!
Thank you! I know most people that watch don't have $300 to spend on a grovemade pen or a headphone stand...
唯有打倒中国党皇帝才能救中国！绝不接受党皇帝专制独裁极权统治下的一个中国！中国公惨裆的专制独裁极权统治政权，才是阻挠一个中国的最大障碍！根本原因！中国党皇帝、一个专制独裁的国家，攻击、吞并已经自由民主的中华民国台湾，永远都不存在有正当性！在这个世界上，没有人会愿意放弃自由、民主、人权，而接受被专制独裁极权政权所统治！台湾不过仅仅是拒绝屈服于坚决拒绝公开政府官员财产、永远说一套做一套、骨子里头真贪腐、暗中背后谋私利的、永远将党的利益凌驾在中国人民利益之上的专制独裁的一个共产党政权、一个共产党国家，又有什么错！！！
I used butcher block from Home Depot for my table top. Slight live edge. I love it but yes, very heavy.
Good Job!! 👏👏
Nice vid and nice setup maybe future you can switch monitor and speaker update it because everything else looks up to date and great
amazing info and I'm only half way through
Epic set up.
Thank you Jordan!
Loved the video, thank you for sharing.
Odd question though, what’s the clock screen saver that you’re using in your thumbnail? Would love to have that on my setup. Thank you in advance.
I love the simplicity of your setup! Great work!
Nice vid! I actually have been getting my desk setup. I have the exact same desk frame- I've been happy with it. The computer tower mount for under the pc is a great idea because right now mine is sitting on the desk and it takes up a lot of space. It looks like your pc is a bit tilted in the tower mount. Is that the case or can I straighten up? I was also impressed to see your makeshift desk lift for the monitor. I will have to look into that myself because they are quite expensive. Looking forward to seeing more vids!
I like what you did with your setup
really liked this video! I'm also a researcher (STEM) so many of the creator focused ones are just too extravagant for me (also they're heavily sponsored with expensive products)
Thanks Stone! Always better when its not sponsored :)
Glad to see something other than Grovemade.
Very clean setup. What cordless drill did you use for screwing the legs to the table? I need to get one.
Looks like your portfolio grew well in 2021😄
Did you see a bunch of Bentleys in his garage?
Lol finally a desk set up that also thought that groove made is extremely expensive
Nice job, mate
amazing set up mate. one thing that drawn me into the video was the screen saver of a digital clock. how do u make the set up for this. I am curious. thank you in advance
I’m a lazy guy so I always have massive respect for people who build their own stuffs 👍🏻👍🏻
Nice set up
Good desk
It makes me so happy that I predicted the music choice at the start before even clicking on the vid :D
Great setup! Love all of it from the table choice to the monitor, monitor stand and overall aesthetic.
The only issue I have is the Keyboard. I've used the G512 previously and it broke within 1 year and 2 months. The problem is the thin plastic stems that connect the keycaps to the switches are very weak and they will break very easily due to the design of the Romer G switches. This is whereas other switches like Cherry have thick solid stems. So yea, watch out for that. Suggest don't be as heavy a typer as me! lol
Huge respect for this effort! I am not a trader, but when I sold my multi-purpose gaming PC for a Macbook Pro 16-inch M1, I missed the PC so much, that I built another one lol
Why would you trade a Windows PC for a Mac? You see how stupid this was?
@@Ni1996Ki I ended up purchasing a MacBook Air and I love using it for everything other than gaming, which I have my PC for. Just because you're biased toward PC doesn't mean having a Mac is stupid
Thanks for the video. I found the digital clock screen saver on the video cover very nice, could you please tell its name?
Sure its called Fliqlo and its a free download :)
Nice office set up, I am getting an office upgrade and looking to get this desk from Lazy Maisons, can you please advice how is it going now? Did you end up with any issues with the desk?
Really love that you did a real world cost conscious build. A lot of the other videos I've seen use ridiculously overpriced products for all their components. Big up to you bro.
I love the fact that you decided to do you own stuffs and making this so affordable and realistic to enthusiast and beginners! THANK YOU!!
add some spaces between one of the cable boxes and the desk. should give more room for power strip
Great video, it may be a personal preference based opinion but by getting a dual monitor mount it would give the monotors room for variation so you could test your prefered layout. another thing i recommend is moving the bass box/ subwoofer to the floor as when playing some bass heavy noise it may rattle the desk or even effet your pc which is right beneath it. a perfect spot would be infront of your chair up againts the wall. and if your were ever up for hiding your cable to your power port i recommend a cable raceway. these arent important all just personal preference. Really enjoyed the video.
Nice work. Don't forget a bit of sound proofing to minimise the empty room echo
Thanks Mike! I've got some acoustic foam squares coming soon!
@@trexzar87 you’re much nicer, I would’ve told them to read the video description
Really nice setup dude, congrats! Do you have the dimension/design for the shelf?
Thanks! Its actually on the grovemade website, I'll link you here: grovemade.com/product/wood-desk-shelf/?initial=341
i want to make my own monitor riser aswell, what kind of store did you say would make that sor of thing?
Good setup, can you or anyone tell us the name of the app showing the clock time ?
Cool
Nice dark color.
Thank god finally SOMEONE doesn't play into Grovemade. I have no idea how many of these setup tours I've watched where they're either sponsored by Grovemade, or they spent thousands on their products
Yah man
Minimal have some really nice prices for the Matt’s. Grovemade is using to all the utubers to reach us silly viewers lol.
New yeah... 👍
hi! appreciate if you can share with us what chair are you using please? thanks!
The tabletop looks huge! But, the link only shows 5 feet. Is that correct? Or is it larger? Nice setup dude.
Thanks! You can choose the size in the dropdown. Mine is a 180cm x 80cm table top.
Nice setup my friend. Pls Tell me what is the clock wallpaper?
Its called Fliqlo and its a free screensaver wallpaper!
“I was using a very small 27” flat screen”
Me: * cries in broke *
only one question i will really appreciate the answer for is how reliable is that frame that moves up and down? I got a fixed desk that's robust they dont make them this strong anymore all i will like to do is just add a bottom frame but only if its really strong enough to support about 300lbs this is what im looking for to im far lighter than that but I saw desks costing thousands that support this weight. I got a Anthro desk and you know the quality im talking about. At the time standing desks wasn't available for my 60inch.
Tht looks sick lmao
Respect for spending wisely and not spending $100 on a grovemade note pad
Finally, a desk setup that actually involves the joy of building and customisation, instead of just buying overpriced 'trendy products' *[cough]Grovemade.
I dont know why people insist on buying half the overpriced stuff from these websites when I've seen cheaper alternatives or people build their own stuff that look just as good.
Hey mate, where did you get you table top from?
I have my monitor connected same like yours, with a vertical monitor setup alongside. In the display settings ive set it up. However how do I set it up so that on the smaller vertical monitor I can click on example Internet explorer browser and it opens on the Vertical monitor (It keeps opening on the main larger 40" monitor)...At the moment whatever I open on the vertical monitor it opens directly onto the Main Monitor and keep having to drag the browser, files etc across...
Really nice setup, mate! Any chance you have the name/link of the wallpaper you're using on an ultra-wide? It has the similar vibe like photos by Eberhard Grossgasteiger, looks very nice :)
I want to know too
I would also like to know!!
Which mouse are you using? Thanks!
Exellent
Hi, can you tell me where you got your floor carpet cuz i wanna do that to but i cant find it.
Awesome Setup What is The diamensions Of Your Desk Sir??
Thank you! It is 1800 by 800mm
What do you use to show the time like that?
which wall colour is this? RAL? thank you :)
