    This is what my father did when I was a kid and also what i did when I moved out. He used a door like yours and then glued dark speaker box carpet onto it. He then stapled the overhanging carpet underneath. He also used two bedside tables as legs. I also use a mouse-pad that is large enough for both my keyboard and mouse. It's super comfy, looks good and has heaps of arm space.

    • @YourPersonalGeek

    I was gonna go buy some wood and pipe for a desk build, but this video reminded me. Two years ago I ripped the counter top off an office built in at work and sat it up against the wall to take home and never did. 2" thick MDF, with a Formica veneer, in gray marble. about 5 1/2 foot long. Its not gonna look the prettiest but save me a ton of money. Now I have a reason to look forward to going to work tomorrow.

    • @YourPersonalGeek

Places like Lowe's charge like $80 just for the legs. I just went on to the Ikea link you provided and the legs are $4.00 each. $16.00 for a set of 4 legs is so much better than $80.

Plus due to COVID19 Ikea's delivery fee is in the $100's right now 😳 so ordering from there would kind of defeat the whole purpose of a budget desk build.
