My Sheet Metal Bender Video: / ortsrrpzwk
In this video I show you how I built my desk. A lot of Inspiration for that build came from the channel: / @philvandelay
Video: • How to Build a Cable-F... Because I don't have a lot of space in my office, I had to build it very functionally. I have tried to remove all cables from the desktop.
Each charger has its own place on the right side. But I should have made the cable duct a little larger. It's a bit small. I mount also LED lighting with a few LED strips.
I also thought about making it height adjustable. But I don't sit often on the desk anyway, it wasn't that important to me. The drawer cabinets are from Ikea.
The black panel on the back is an acoustic panel. Hope this will improve the sound quality. That's maybe also interesting for some people they like to build a Gaming desk. I'm planning something like voiceover video versions for the channel (members), leave me a comment if you're interested in something like that :)
Now I have almost a complete office as a desk...workstation
Now everything finally has a fixed place and I don't have to search for something all the time :)
I'm glad that I've finally completed this welding project and I'm really only annoyed that I haven't built it longer.
Greetings Dirk

Only problem with your videos is there's not enough of them! Awesome work as usual. Your work is truly inspiring. Thanks for all the effort in producing these videos!

[@TheMetalist]

Thank John for that nice feedback 💪😁

[@missdee212]

Quality not quantity. And soon there will be more

[@nerukas86]

I think only problem there is no Voice over :D would be cool!

[@jeffschroeder4805]

Beautiful design and execution...... as always! The monitor hanger is genius.

[@stuartkorte1642]

Gorgeous. Love the sliding monitor bracket and indirect lighting.

[@TheMetalist]

Thank you 😁

[@createdesign]

Wie immer tolle Arbeit, ich mag diese vielen kleinen Tricks und die Kamera Perspektiven

[@TheMetalist]

Vielen Dank Andrè 😁

[@adamhargrave2242]

Nicely done. I'm rather jealous of your ability to combine fabrications with artistic flares. And I never would have thought of mounting a monitor that way. ingenious.

[@TheMetalist]

Thank you Adam😁

[@totoymola283]

I could work all day with that desk. The sliding monitor is an ingenious idea.

[@TheMetalist]

Awesome 😁

[@110welding]

The total "WOW" effect. That is probably the koolest desk I have seen... Awesome work 👏 👌 👍

[@TheMetalist]

😁😁😁 thank you

[@abhiram62]

Its wonderful work.

[@helmutk.2583]

Hallo Dirk, mal wieder ein kurzweiliges Video, interessant zuzuschauen. Auf jeden Fall alles schon recht stabil gebaut. Du hast auch nur top Werkzeug, da kann man im Positiven gesehen, schon fast neidisch werden. Ich glaube, mit deinen Videos triffst Du das Interesse einer großen Community. Danke für die Unterhaltung am Sonntag Abend.

[@TheMetalist]

Hi Helmut, vielen Dank😊 Ja ist halt mein großes Hobby 😁👍

[@bkrich]

[@silver33]

That monitor bracket is genius.

[@TheMetalist]

Thank you 😊

[@Zable24]

That monitor mount is GENIUS

[@commander-tomalak]

Man, that looks super nice and tidy! It's especially satisfying that the thickness of your framing tips match the thickness of the boards.

[@TheMetalist]

Thank you 😁 yes that turned out nice. i thought about to buy a bigger board but at this wood prices it was easier to change the profil 😅😁

[@iainhetherington4608]

The way you mounted the monitor is the best and smartest design I have ever seen.👍

[@exelenc94]

Wicked work!

[@KrogunDK]

What a wonderful build. Thank you. You can make some pretty welds. Considder not grinding your welds if you build more furniture. Personally I like that you see the hand made look.

[@TheMetalist]

Thank you 😁 there will come up a nice furniture build with bare steel and tig brazing welds 😊

[@missdee212]

Phenomenal build. I love how you did a mixture of welds and cold connections like real freaking furniture.

[@TheMetalist]

Thank you 😁

[@peterwilhelmsson4168]

Silly fact: A cobra cannot "fold back" its' fangs like adders or rattlers can do. Same with the mambas. Therefore their fangs are relatively short, only about a quarter inch. First time viewer here, and I was awestruck by that cobra you got there!

[@CostumeForge]

This is really cool!

[@tomfull6637]

Seeing your project builds you always get me so inspired, wanting to build something similar for myself. ..and then I realise how extensive thinking, planning, measuring and high quality work that needs to go into something even simpler.. ..and it gets me soo tired!… 😱🤣🤣 ..so I settle for “being entertained by the artistry.” And that’s good enough for me 😅 Kudos and kind regards Anders Sweden

[@TheMetalist]

Thank you Anders 😁 ok try my best 💪

[@danielaragon5755]

Oh man, that is a nice desk and a great setup. I really like the monitor sliding bar.

[@TheMetalist]

Thank you 😊

[@Daniel.B_63]

Great job! Your videos are always awesome... keep up the good work 👍

[@TheMetalist]

Thank you Daniel 😁

[@idelekka]

Ergotron, Shmegatron… Dirk splits a tube in half for a sliding VESA mount 😂 Plenty of ingenuous solutions, geil!
