RE: My Report On Using A "Standing Desk" In The Office. An Important Read For Those Office Bound Workers
So, my solution to that problem, and for me it was a big problem, was to get 2 more monitors and just mount them to the wall, and mount a couple of shelves underneath. Then I have a second mouse and keyboard on one of the shelves. I can seemlessly go from sitting to standing and back again, which works for me.
It wasn't free, but it was a lot less than one of those motorized desks. Sheesh, they are really proud of those, and they charge you accordingly.
If I knew what I was doing, I would put a picture of it in my post. But, alas, I am still figuring that stuff out. :)
Brilliant @sminchow. You'd need to be on good terms with the owner of the wall but would definitely save desk surface space. Looking forward to a picture when you figure ot out and if you're still willing.
OK. So that wasn't as hard as I thought it would be - I just needed to give it a shot. Of course, it looks like it will work from the preview, but once I hit POST, who knows? Here's to hoping...
So, you probably think I'm spoiled, and I probably am. I have 3 monitors on my desk, and the two mounted on the wall mirror the 2 left ones on the desk. I have moved to being as paperless as possible over the years, but the downside to that is that I need a boatload of monitor viewspace so I can see all of the different documents that I need to.
Well, anyway, sorry it took me so long. But at least you got to be my test case for uploading a picture. :)
What a brilliant setup @sminchow. I can see how moving from one setup to the other would be stimulating. Well done on the picture upload.
