Purpose |
Build a media editing workstation by pole mount large monitors to a rolling desk. |
Features |
Adam took a standard Simple Table Rugged rolling kit and customised it with some additional tube and fittings to support two large monitors and some speakers. The rolling feature allows the desk to be moved out of the way so that a storage area underneath the stairs can be accessed. The speaker supports can be adjusted in and out simply by loosening and tightening the set screw in the fitting. In order to support the monitors, he added an additional cross-bar to the back of the desk. Two uprights were connected to the cross-bars with a 45 fitting. The top of the uprights were capped off with two 15 Elbows and a separator tube. The monitor brackets were connected to the pipes with a standard set of U-bolts. On one of the desks Adam used some additional 10-75 tee to attach two smaller speaker support tube. The speakers were connected to the tube with 70-5 Rail Support. |
Building Tips |
Build the support tube for the monitor high enough so you can adjust the brackets up and down. Use cord control underneath the desk to keep everything under control. Use wire ties or Velcro straps to keep cords attached to the tubes. |
