Here's my version of the IKEA desk
I will be able to add a keyboard drawer later

On both side I can store a few cds as well as vinyl (where the minipod speakers are right now)

What parts was that using? All ikea ?

[thj17]

Yeah all IKEA

4'' capita legs (2x pack of 4)(you could use higher 6 or 8 but I'm 5'6'' so the 4 were enough)
Ullrik table leg (2x but it was called another name and the red ones were at clearance)
Pragel countertop (73-1/4'' uncut)
Capita brackets (pack of 2)
EKBY Amund shelf

Extremelly solid and heavy desk...about 70 kg really happy with the result

^ looks a tad crowded. other than that, nice setup.

what's with everyone putting their setups against the wall? i would want to have mine facing the room like djbonzaii and i'd want the speakers on the other side of the room so i could get the full effect of the sound. that's just me.

I just don't have the space available to have it set up in that way

In an ideal world...

Has anyone found a decent replacment for the angled legs yet that have been discontinued?

Love how you placed the interface under your mbp. Clean as hell.

Hey guys,

i'm new in this forum.

I've started Dj'ing a bit a few years ago but got now money for that expensive hobby.

Now i'm able to buy equipment step by step

First step was building and DJ-Desk alá IKEA

Here it is





Nearly all Parts are from IKEA.

The stand for the M-Audio BX-8 is complete selfmade by my own

I bought steel plates and steel profiles and welded it myself.

Also the holdings for the "laptop-stand" is complete selfmade

Enough said so far, i will create an thread with my upcoming Equipment and more detailed pictures from the desk ;-)

I hope it suites you

Hey Illinspecta ! Nice stuff !

What's the table top that you put on the expedit to make it wider ? It'd be great if you could give me the ikea reference !
