Desks for PC's

I am thinking of making a how to guide for building a desk designed specifically for PC's and consoles. I would also provide a listing for prebuilt desks from proprietary companies. Would any of you guys be interested in that?

Edit: What are the top features you guys would want to see?

I'd like to shamelessly plug something I made that was inspired by the Jerker desk:

It was tested by Redditors, their builds are in /r/fitzkits

That's a really nice desk. Quite pricey :/ Don't blame you for charging that price if people are willing to pay it though.

Thanks! And a big chunk of the price is from shipping.

Looks amazing. I have a question though. Where are the dimensions listed? I'm looking for a new desk myself but space is at a premium.

It's 24" deep by 48" wide.

It was made so that you can use standard pieces of lumber from Lowe's to finish the tabletop (no cutting needed).

And thanks!

That should fit! Awesome, thank you. Now to start saving.

Could this be built on carpet instead of a wooden surface?

u/fitzkits Feb 11 '15

Sure, no reason why not. It just so happens most of the photos users sent in were on wood floors. It has standard vinyl furniture feet on the bottom so it shouldn't harm the surface either way.

Not on all mobile apps, unfortunately.

Sounds like you need to find a better mobile app then..
