My Simple Ghetto Style Standing Desk or Workstation
0If you work in the finance or IT sector I am sure you are faced with long hours sitting in front of a computer. On average I probably spend 12 -14 hours a day sitting in front of a computer. Spending this much time being sedentary is not conducive to good health. The concept of the standing desk or workstation is nothing new. For the past couple of years I have been meaning to try out the standing workstation/desk. Finally on the weekend I got around to setting up my Ghetto Style Standing Workstation/Desk. You can see a few images below, essentially I just grabbed a few things I found laying around and put them on top of my current desk to get the right height.
Items Used for My Standing Desk/Workstation
- 6 Large books (Preferably ones that you will not be referring to often).
- 2 black file holders.
- 1 piece of laminated MDF (from the shed).
- 1 small bookshelf (needed to be strong to support the weight of iMac 27′).
Why Bother???
