Post pictures of your workspace! :)

Hey there,

I am looking to build a new computer desk for my office. I have a space set up, and I want the desk to be in the shape of a bracket "[" along three walls.

The desk is for my desktop/laptop, printer/scanner, speaker system, an area for projects and paperwork, and eventually a 32" LCD and gaming storage space - complete with plenty of shelves and drawers.

I wanted to start a thread where everyone can talk about their own personal workspace, what they look for in a workspace, and post photos of their own office spaces!

If anyone has any helpful tips for DIY desks or other nifty office plans, please share!

Right now I have an L-desk that's separated and set side by side. In the center is a multi-level shelf system where the server, printer and scanner live.

The amazing desktop-replacement station. Complete with wheels for portability, a retractable eating/book tray, a manly stereo to replace those wimpy laptop speakers, and a powerstrip duct taped to the back!

I've had this setup for nearly 17 hours already. I do plan on actually throwing some fans on it for overheating and maybe some extraneous features.A cup-holder, a shelf to put a small printer on, an external hdd, a more elegant power solution, maybe even a small safe to hide money/spare keys. I just want to hide all of those wires mostly, looks sloppy.

That's funny, because I use this same desk for my desktop currently . xD I priced some materials to build my desk, so now I just need to wait for the extra funds to come in.

Hiding wires always seems to be a trouble of mine, because I like everything to look super neat and organized!
