Finally committed to the standing desk
Tabletop is a reclaimed pine dining tabletop (which was made from reclaimed lumber from a railroad somewhere). Legs are premium grade 4x4 douglas fir and the braces are kiln dried 2x4 white wood. Used pocket holes to screw everything together, the carriage bolts of for decoration only. Sanded it as smooth as I had patience for and stained it black to give it a rough carved, yet modern look.
The surge protector, computer and external hard drives are mounted to the bottom side of the tabletop. I put clips on the back of the legs and braces to secure all the wiring. I need to get a few longer cables and wires to make it just perfect. A 4-port USB hub is all that shows of the equipment underneath. I use a wireless mouse and keyboard. Monitors are mounted to the wall with articulating arms at eye-level (MY eye level).
Its a standing desk so obviously most the time I stand, but sitting from time to time is important. The chair is from Sam's Club and the seat base is adjusted all the way up (31.25 inches). I used to just sit on an old bar stool that was too short if I needed a rest. This is much nicer and I can plant myself if I'm in for a long day or night.
