I was starting school again this year and was on the look out for a desk I would be able to work at while standing up. I do a lot of work on the computer as well as drawing by hand and wanted to be able to be on my feet or sitting while working.
Materials:
4x RAST nightstand
1x LINMON table top 200 x 60 cm
1x FRANKLIN bar stool
Two trays 35 x 35 cm not from Ikea
Love the idea of a treadputer and happen to own the well-loved, easy-to-Craigslist IKEA Jerker? Turns out it makes for a really nice treadmill desk.
The muscle soreness I’m experiencing today after walking around Comic-Con this weekend made me realize: I’ve got to incorporate more standing and walking into my daily routine. Maybe a treadmill desk? There are some expensive desks made to fit over a treadmill (sold separately), but someone on Hacker News modified an IKEA Jerker desk to do the job. The discontinued but beloved model of desk, which I already own, plus one of those inexpensive but utilitarian wire shelving units gives you a wide monitor stand plus plenty of keyboard and mouse room. It’s not the prettiest thing in the world, but it looks really tempting to try. The owner says:
