    I need to give a massive thanks to ‪@FlexiSpotAUS‬ for hooking me up with this E7! I've had a fantastic time building my new desk, and this simple and reliable lifting mechanism has taken the project to the next level and made things much more enjoyable and useful in my office. I'm sincerely really impressed with how well it works, and while I've only had it setup for a week or so, I'm loving it. If you're looking for a standing desk, definitely check Flexispot out.
    To be honest, I'm actually tempted to get two more of these! 😆 I need to replace my kitchen table, and the design I have in mind means it will pull double duty as a games table as well. Being able to raise and lower it deoending on the purpose would be amazing.
    And this may sound crazy, but I want one in the workshop! Having this as my tablesaw outfeed /assembly / glue up table / sanding table would be so cool. I'd be able to adjust the height depending on what I'm doing, and then could return it to the perfect tablesaw outfeed height at the push of a button, I'm definitely tempted to look into that further!
    Cheers!

    Too funny. We're empty nesters now and it's wonderful! Never having to say, "Not in the house!" ( three boys ) ever again. priceless.
    Get yourself an under lifting-desk treadmill next. For your health/ longevity. Walks even though it's winter.
    Although you'll probably need a mounted very large television with interesting nature walks for you to view to make it tolerable. It'll require lots of cables, and the mount would need loads of adjustability, so it would need to be a monstrosity and take up loads of space...never mind.
    Great video. Thanks :-)

    That table saw looks a bad place to read. One unexpected sneeze and mini Mario is in a right pickle.
    The desk looks good. I nearly bought one, was just about to pull the trigger and they made us go back to the office. If I worked from home again I would definitely have one.

      In a right pickle, but also, right in the pickle! 😆 I made sure the power was out before climbing up there lol. The standing function is great, changes the whole day when you can spend a couple hours standing and stretching. 👍

    I've never understood the concept of a standing desk. The desk in my office is always cluttered and messy. I clean up every now and then, but, inevitably, it's messy a couple of days later. And, as you stated, the cords are the biggest problem. Anyway, great video as usual, but one thing soured it for me ..... the ugly picture above the desk. 🤣🤣👍

    • @woodfather
      @woodfather  Місяць тому

      It's all tucked away now big fella, only one cord hangs down and that delivers power to the desk and all the equipment on top. I try to keep my desk 'cleanish', I don't always succeed, but I try at least. 😆 Also, GO BLUES! 👍

    Great video! Has this desk replaced the planned roll-top desk, or is that still going to happen?

    • @woodfather
      @woodfather  Місяць тому

      Thanks PJ. No, the roll top is still definitely going to happen. The office has two desks, this one, and then the old tabletop I hastily installed when I built the room with is on the opposite wall. That tabletop is a junk magnet, and will be removed so that the rolltop desk can live there in future. The rolltop is going to be specific for another hobby of mine, so I'm taking my time and constantly tweaking the design to cater to my needs there. One of those, "I'm scared to start" builds, in case I do a disastrous job 😆
