An Ikea Standing Desk For $47 + Shipping

Following the article A standing desk for $22, I build mine by doubling the specs, as recommended by others.

About 2 hours to setup and a trip to the hardware store to buy, the right screws to attach the bracket to the feet of the 2 tables.
  • One table is very cheap $8, it is great for the usage and purpose, but the foot inside material is not solid, so I needed a screws that go across.
  • The self is really nice and heavy at first, once you have the computer and screens on the table it is fine. Though I cannot put all my weight on it, I plan to find a way to attach the 2 small table to the main table.

Really worth it
