I have a room that has a slanted ceiling like that. Was considering an L-desk for more space and that seems to work out fine!
Got a tip for us?

New DIY desk. For some reason the paint doesn't seem to have dried properly & whenever anything hot sticks.
i like your shelves,i think i have seen those at bed,bath & beyond i will be buying those soon.
those are ikea shelves, but any floating shelves will work the same, its amazing how useful they can be!
Haha yeah i've been there, its so obviously cutWhy do people not figure it out?
I already knew how, he cut slits. I was just saying "Here they come".
The link was incorrect, after quite sometime browsing the net I came across the correct link:

It is called FlipClock 0.5, search the forum there is a link for the clock.

it is an ikea vika hyttan table top 59" long, in stainless steel.
I really dig this, most definitely one of my favorite setups.
thanks man!
penningtonj what is the stripping you've used to conceal your wires on the wall?
Stop quoting pictures.

Really nice cable management!
The stripping is from Home Depot, I'm not sure what brand but I have seen at several of their stores so I'm sure it or something similar is at all of them. To be honest I think it is pretty ugly (any stripping that is) however that wall is an exterior second story wall where the bottom half goes into the attic and the top just to the outside so there is a horizontal beam (several actually) where the roof over the attic is and getting it through that would have been rather difficult. I used a small strip for the ACD too, but that was just because I was being lazy and wanted to avoid more holes.
Yeah, I have basically given up altogether with her. Sorta stopped keeping up with J-Pop in general. I was really into the newer group BRIGHT... but their first album was a little bit of a let down. :/ Their debut mini-album was EXCELLENT though! You should check them out if you haven't already. Very talented girls.
Now I am back to listening to the three American groups I like, and various movie scores. haha. ><
pennintonj, I love your set up. The ACD on the wall looks amazing.
puma1552, that's a really clean looking setup. Nice.

I am hoping to replace that later this month with a 24" LED Cinema Display actually, I am hoping the black will look as good. I used to have the laptop on an mStand but switched to the BookArc to make more room on the desk. The disadvantage of the BookArc is that I can't use the speakers or iSight anymore, so the new cinema display would solve that. I stream music over airtunes to a Bose 321 system on the other side of the room so the speakers don't need to be powerful as they are just for non music/movie sound. I considered the Logitech Vision Pro (I have one at work) but it is pretty ugly so I think the cinema display is the way to go. I'm sure I will find a use for the 20" and the cost isn't that bad considering the webcam, speakers, built-in hub, macbook pro charger and good quality monitor.
Do you like your current 20 inch ACD? I know a store that has an open box for $300, but I am not sure if it is a worthwhile purchase considering how many new (and larger) monitors can be had for the same price or less.
