Has anyone built one of these? I've been looking into modifying one of those electronic lift desks but they are so expensive and this looks like a great concept to start from.
This will be my next project. Just looking for some additional pics. Planning to do mine in ash and maybe modify the knob with a moxon type flywheel.
I haven't seen this one before, but I do like it. The description didn't really indicate if the hardware was just off the shelf stuff you can get anywhere or if you need to go to a specific vendor to work with their plan. I'll be watching to see what you come up with.
anyone happen to have a 15% discount code that gets sent out with their newsletters? I won't get a code till they send out the next newsletter. Seems like when you sign up they should send the most recent newsletter even if it's not a friday.
I tried calling but they are out to lunch CST, lol
Everyone has been thrilled with it, and it can support a very large heavy worktop. I think they also make a single motor version which is cheaper.
thanks, that's the kind I was considering using. Did you customize the legs or base? What I like about woodsmith one is the use of wood.
I ordered the plans and the recommended hardware comes from Mcmaster was priced out at ~$250 so the dollar savings compared to a motorized lift will probably be negligible but I think stylewise a big plus. I'll have to reserve functional differences for later. I had a motorized one at work but we moved buildings and I lost it.
I used live edge slabs of wood that I was able to buy locally. A friend came up with a brilliant design, I drilled holes for 4 insert nuts on the bottom of the slab, inserted 4 threaded rods in them, then suspended a small plywood shelf from the underside of the table to house the computer, and rest the bases of the monitors, so the entire top of the slab was open for a wireless mouse and keyboard.
