Just now discovered this video! And I am cracking up seeing my own clip of me breaking my Ikea desk at 01:20 😆
I really like your cable management solution! 👌

[JasonCrosen]

That false back is a great idea. I might do that with some pegboard so cables can be laid along hooks or power strips can be attached

[nerdyneighbor]

This was such a satisfying video to watch.

[TheVideoNerd]

I am planning a Streaming Setup video like Setup Wars but only for streaming setups!
Do you have a clean streaming setup? Doesn't need to be over-the-top, just a nice streaming setup.

You can add your socials, I will give extended shout outs!

Cheers

it's funny how everyone goes crazy about cable management, spending 8 hours meticulously tucking, wrapping, and hiding cables to every square inch of their under desk space. Meanwhile you can hide them with a flat panel in about 5 minutes and it's completely removable.

looks so cleannn, the white with dark wood color scheme looks so good! keep it up!

[parkercollister]

if anyone wants to have the false wall but not saw anything or have the gap you can use the Trotten countertop which is the same height as the alex drawers and micke drawers with no wheels

[JayNBA]

Can I ask which microphone you were using to record the actual video? Assuming it was a shotgun mic of some sort as there was nothing in your face... it sounded amazing!

[belugajr.]

Thank you I have started to stream and upload because of u

[bizthevillain]

Never thought of a false wall. Man this would have saved me money and time just for cable management. Nice setup

[_alucid_]

Another solution to the height being right for the drawers, you can use some risers that are the same height and screw them in or use tape.

[Autotrope]

The tape on the drill bit trick is a tried and true one. Nice setup and I like you weren't afraid to DIY a bit to get something more suitable.

[ANTHONY-rpud]

Using a false wall is a no-brainer compared to the hours of cable management time

[blizzit]

Glad I found this video, I'm hoping to upgrade around christmas, my desk is really weird and isn't fully symmetrical and has a raised section like an old school office desk.

[athstreamsandmore]

Thanks for posting an idea. I haven't even considered IKEA and using a false wall to make it work.

[CLStegall]

This was a great run-down. I dig the idea of the false back on the desk. I've been thinking of something similar, only taller, for mounting monitor and speakers on. This, so as not to have to mount it all to the wall. Still working out the logistics on that. Anyway, great job, man!

[salient_one]

@11:03 Did I just watch you take the plastic off the top side of that double sided sellotape for no reason? LOL

[mainly_dyutish]

If you want to build a custom keyboard as u are a starter go with 75% or 80% layout case

[RevengeAgma]

probably the first 10+ minute video i haven't skipped one bit

[wrj]

I used a butcher block counter top from home depot for my desk, not only is it solid Birch but it's an inch and a half thick
