Will take some better photos when my desk is finished by the end of next week at the latest but here's some of my setup. Sort of temporary atm.

Everything you see is wired up and working. The mic and guitar are also connected to the macbook along with the iPod, speakers and external HDD.

I absolutely LOVE that integrated iPod dock on desk, and the desk itself. Want to make me one? :)

No haven´t posted mine yet, because it´s still under construction, but I have two desks (maybe a third one will come) and a 46" graphics tablet.

... *drools everywhere* I want that graphics tablet! Can't afford... (and don't really need, but it would be a cool toy) ... The Wacom Bamboo, cheapest Wacom. :) I BET THAT COST A BOMB, Your company pay for it or yourself?

You have the best looking desk ever! And your website with all the desk info, is THE BEST THING EVER! Everything is so professional and apple like! Great job

THANKS :D :D Everything I've done has been a great learning curve, the project allowed me to use CS4 properly (but still basic). It's what i enjoy.
I tried to design it really functional and look appealing and minimal even with many features built in. Then I added a hint of Apple design to make it a good match to the 'lamborghini's' of the computer world.

Honestly I would love to make loads but I really don't have time or the money to invest. If I made each one myself, with the use of large CNC machines, I recon I could build one every 2 weeks doing it full time. But a lot of things I've had professionally done have been done as favors and at special prices to support my project. I wouldn't be able to get these prices again. The one I'm making now would need to be sold for a large amount that not many people would want to pay... Even if it is unique, bespoke and hand built.

I was actually discussing selling the prototype to someone on these forums but they couldn't afford it. Honestly, I can't afford it. Worked bloody hard to get where I am now with it and I don't know if I have the money to keep it or if I'll need the money for uni...

Paid for this thing myself, but got it a bit cheaper. It normally costs around 6k and has some cool features like light and electrical adjustability. If you want I can post some pics tomorrow. To be honest this things is great, but I´m thinking of selling it to get a Cintiq.

Love the monitors, could they double as televisions, obviously you wouldnt want three tvs but I'm wondering if they would work for dual purpose.
Click to expand...

By "dual purpose" you mean?

I am using pinnacle tv for mac to view tv (when taking a break)
sometimes I open the tv window in the 19" (full screen) or shrink the tv window next to my apps and watch tv while I work. :apple:

As promised some pics of my graphics tablet:

The film you can see on top of the tablet at the second picture is just a self-made protection and can be removed.
