      @Auspice When I get home and can clean a little, I'll post the desk of doom. Sadly, I can't get the support joists in a shot because the room is to small for the distance. Thing is falling apart here and there after a decade but damn if I don't patch the shit out of it.

      Oh fucking well.

        I had a desk like that for a while. I loved that desk. But eventually I had to just give up and let it go. It had so many L-brackets holding it together in the end.

          My desk is dusty af because I haven't been living in my apartment for a couple of months. Once I get it moved over and set back up, I'll post something.

          So, a couple of weeks.

            @Auspice We have other pieces from the furniture set in the room that take less wear and tear, which makes it tough. It's also a very odd size/shape corner, so even things in the same dimensions don't always fit. Once the center was unsagged with the supports -- which also brace a diagonal keybard shelf into place -- it made a huge difference. I was able to resurface the top with linoleum floor tile, which has held up brilliantly.

            One of the shelf fronts is off kilter, though, which is the smallest thing, but it drives me nuts.

            Oh fucking well.

              I don't have a pic of the work setup, but my desk has adjustable arm mounts that hold the monitors wherever you want them. I have them meet over my laptop screen as a unified continuous field, because anything else is clearly wrong.

                That's how I do it at work exceeeeeeeept there's like, a half-inch of overlap because the arms aren't high enough.

                  @Auspice Ours are fully adjustable, which is just so super snazzy. What it really means is I spend generously 25% of my work life adjusting the damned things because they're never quite perfectly right.

                    Mine's probably a little different:

                    The widescreen is my 'primary', the little one to the right of it is simply a result of my obsessive need to know Everything. It's a touch-screen dealie whos sole purpose is to run monitoring software (Currently has the Graphics statistics in this shot because I ended up having to replace that card for overheating)
