Just put mine together with the instruction booklet. My keyboard drawer also didn’t quite fit. I *very gently* used a ratchet strap wrapped around the part that holds the keyboard tray to squeeze the gap like a 1/4” so that the tray actually reaches both sets of rails and it works great now
I just put the legs on, and I tried using a Dewalt impact driver. Don’t do that. Screw the screws in by hand. It’s impossible to get them to go in straight, otherwise. By hand, they snug up just fine.
You guys really need to add the instructions for the shelf glides to the sidecar assembly video. I cursed you putting it together a couple of weeks ago. The fact that the glides can be disassembled for installation is important.
If you have a piece of equipment that is too long, you can’t get to it from the back of the desk because the back board is blocking. Im wondering can I get rid of the back boards and still put top of desk together
What is confusing is the instructions show two sets of wood screws, whereas i got three sets of three different sizes of screws. I had to figure out which screws to use. On the upside, the veneer wood grain is very nice and by looking into the cut out holes, it appears to be good quality ply.
Same shit happened to me, I’m amazed they haven’t fixed this problem, now I have to wait to hear back if I used the proper screws and which ones to use to continue
in total a good quality system! but the (new ) rail system ( on studio line) is completely useless as the locksystem ,( grey plastic one ) must be removed and is to close to the screw later.!!!
Keyboard slider broke off as I attempted to slide in and left and right side didn’t align up properly as if it was too wide. Now i have these rubber pieces with balls in them and my right side slider is broken. Smh! HELP
Bella ma mi hanno mandato un pezzo sbagliato e ora sono in balia della burocrazia di Thomann che non mi sta supportando affatto. Peccato perché è molto bella e comoda ma il servizio di Gator e Thomann è pessimo. Non ricomprerei e con Thomann ho chiuso. Lo sconsiglio a tutti.
There are no FF screws in the manual, but it already ran out of DD screws. Are we supposed to use FF for the missing DD screws? This assembly is god awful.
I wouldn’t use the assembly instructions booklet to wipe myself. The screws to attach the legs are impossible to screw and tighten. Even burned out 2 electric screwdrivers.They sent me a 2nd set of rails for the underneath drawer and it still doesn't line up correctly on the right side and consequently falls out when I slide the drawer in and out. Really?
I’m having this same issue. This is second keyboard and rail set and the left and right sides don’t line up and one side falls out breaking the railing. They don’t seem in a rush to fix this issue
@@SirRodney4Ever Even in their video, he's drilling the screw in crooked. I guess they figure it isn't a big deal, probably since they have 8 screws per leg
Video is crap, desk is crap, and I wish I could return it. I've had it for a while and now reading your comments, I realize it wasn't just me. First off, the drawer assembly on mine is completely different and there is no tab. I forgot how I got it together finally, but yeah, absolute garbage.
Don't buy this. They can't even bother to write some further explanations on their instructions which makes this impossible to build without a video. 2 pieces were hidden inside 2 other pieces...like wtf? They dont think that is frustrating?

thank you for this video because the direction booklet is atrociously ambiguous

Same, took 3 calls to them and I still don’t know which screws to use because they sent a 3rd bag of screws which appears to be mislabeled.
I can’t seem to find on your website the hole mount attachment for a boom arm. Would you be able to send me the link for it? I’m up in Canada. Thanks
Hello Brandon! Customer service will be able to work with you on this. Shoot an email to info@gatorcases.com :)
Just put mine together . Cant wait to start putting gear in it!

this helped a lot. only thing is, i already have the podcast mic. i wanted to put it in the hole and i don’t have that little clamp what’s that from?
You can order the part GFW-MICBCBM4000SURFMOUNT
this desk is a pain to install, these cams got stuck, inch away from throwing it out,

I‘m waiting for mine. I expect to drill holes for chords on the top of the desk. Anyone has already tried?

Do you happen to remember which screw you used to install the main legs?

@@harryhewson2382 No. I'm afraid I can't say that I do.

The instructions say not to use power tools for the screws when installing the legs and in this video they do just that. Lol
lmao

Screws for the legs are hard to tighten down to the T.

@@theejpp thats the thing. The video only stated to drill in 4. And the instructions did too

This assembly manual is the worst and most ambiguous I've ever seen. Whoever wrote it should be fired. The desk itself is nice though.
