    FAQ TIME! If any of you have any questions, leave them in this thread and I’ll update it as they are asked :)
    Q: What tool was used to round the wood corners?
    A: Here in the UK it’s often called a surform, but rasp is also a common name
    Q: Isn’t the monitor too high?
    A: Slightly. It looks more so on video due to the perspective but it’s still pretty comfortable. It was only mounted there for this video anyway and will be moved somewhere else so I’ll make sure to have it slightly lower this time.
    Q: You’ve made loads of custom PCs… which ones to you actually use?
    A: Currently I use the brass and leather build for editing at the studio, and the large silent desk PC (the one with the glass front) is at home and used for photo editing and some gaming etc (though to be fair I haven’t played a game since last Christmas so it’s a fringe use case at the moment).
    Q: Have you considered watercooling the PC itself?
    A: Yes! I went with air cooling as it’s actually pretty decent (I still need to make some minor tweaks) but I do have plans to try watercooling the thing at some point.
    Q: Do you plan these videos? I mean do you make blueprints or you just have a general idea what you're gonna do and just make up on the way?
    A: I pretty much always just have an idea of what I want in my head, and then think through the process needed to get there, and then make it up as I go along.
    Q: Is making UA-cam videos your primary/ only job?
    A: YEP! I’m so grateful that I can do what is basically my hobby as my actual job.
    Q: Are you from the UK or from the US?
    A: Very much the UK.
    Q: Could you use a hydraulic system to lower the monitor in a more controlled way?
    A: Absolutely! It would make it more difficult to push upwards though, so keep that in mind.

      Its very pretty, But I think if you are going to use a monitor like that having some positional control would be nice - even just a little bit of tilt adjustment would be useful. So for me use a monitor/tv wall mount type arrangement between your hinged surface and the screen - so when its down you can easily get that monitor to a better position for you (even better one of those highly adjustable arms but that is much harder to hide in the shelf- I think you would need a tube or two for it slide down so the shelf becomes not attached to the wall but held up off the table -good for hiding the wires in though).
      If you are going for such a fixed position setup the laser style projector built into the PC desk or Shelf seems a sleeker option to me. You need nothing but the tiniest window in the surface to let the projector project onto the wall or a projector screen. So its really really hidden - and putting in all those fans in the PC desk means quiet cooling of the projector is already sorted (as projectors tend to be quite small with loudish fans but the desk already has way more airflow than needed diverting a little won't hurt.)

      2nd: Moving it is mortal sin (so much work IF your gonna "Clean, Repair or Move" it.)
      3rd: All that Construction work, for minimal Benefits (purely Aesthetics)

    • Create a fake potted plant (or something) to act as a usb hub sitting on the desk. Oooh maybe make a potted mushroom like your old mushroom lamp design. Would love to see an update to that.
    • Even though the surface is aluminum find a way to install a wireless charging area on the desk. So you can just set your phone / headphones case down and charge them without plugging them in. Maybe put the wireless charger in the fake potted plant?

    Small idea for improvement to the desk PC. Before adding the veneer to the top, cut out a round, properly sized, hole in the aluminum off to one side. Then after the veneer is in place, mount a wireless charger to the underside of the veneer. It would be invisible from the top of the desk, and you could set your phone down on the "invisible spot" to charge while your on the computer.

      How about a simple catch release? Add a pneumatic spring for a door to slow it down and make it move smoothly. You'd still need muscle power to put the monitor back up in the shelf, but at least it would lock itself in once you did.
      This would be an upgrade whether you signal it with the presence of mains power or trigger it by hand. Just not having to fumble for the catch when putting the monitor back up would make it worthwhile.

    Being a furniture designer and wood worker myself, I think it's a brilliantly executed idea. I could build one, but have no problem with my PC and monitor showing. I'd have to weigh if it's worth all that trouble. But I'm sure more than one or two people have or are going to build it. And frankly, the bracket system idea has solved a problem I have been trying to work out on another project. This man is really, really talented. Kudos to him for sharing it, whatever his income!!!

    If you make the screen open from front to back (bottom first) you can attach an aluminium plate to the VESA support and it will be back the monitor when full opened.
    You can add then some LED strips like the Corsair ones and create a Philips hue like effect, being able to extend the image colors dynamically for a better immersion affect, specially if you polish that aluminium plate or set a white skin into it.

      It's an inspiring video. This means that you can create something similar, even at zero cost (outside of work), if the design of your furniture allows it. For example, I managed to incorporate a computer (an entire metal box) into the leg of an ancient table with a wooden door. I needed convenient access to memory card readers, DVD, USB, laser printer, etc. The wireless keyboard, mouse, headphones, etc. can be hidden in the same space.
      The advantage of such a method is that, for example, in the event of a PC failure, you can conveniently replace the entire cabinet. You don't have to disassemble the table. I have the monitor loosely placed on my desk, but this is the only visible PC peripheral. Everyone has to evaluate which solution suits them, and this is partly due to the inspiration from the video.

      Table has 80cm depth and is ~10cm away from the wall... Screen is 40cm away from wall when in use, so it gives ~50cm from screen to the table border... I guess it's a good distance for such screen size.

    • @rachmanfachri
