Ikea desk mods...
Ikea desk mods... Posted on: 03.12.2010 by Annalisa Shogren Hey all, I'm looking at buying a couple of Ikea pieces and sling them together to make a suarve desk for various gear
and future purchases!I was believeing something along the lines of this... It's basically one of these on it's side: With this one on top: However, I'm not sure if it'll be high enough for my needs. As he has his TT's in a flight case which obviously raises them up somewhat. I only have an Omni Control but plan on upgrading to the S4 and some Rokit 5 G2s too in the future. I'm 5"11 so I'm believeing it might be a bit too low for me? Does anyone have any ideas or desks they've done themselves? | |

If not: http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/10147737 I have one, its 90cm high and the perfect height for mixing. It holds 2 1210's (battle position), lappy (on a stand), a reloop controller, x1 and lpd8 at a squeeze. No room for speakers though, so i mounted them on the wall with some free brackets. If youre still intent on that one you proposed then you can buy little legs from ikea too that'll raise it up to about 90 cm or higher. I cant remember the name of them though. |
