my desk got crowded. the only answer is to build up. i whipped up some new end cheeks for the p12 in leftover cherry. these were supposed to be drawer fronts for a bureau, but i haven’t gotten back to working on that project in forever. i’ll probably have to cut them to different lengths, anyway. the vesa mount is just attached with m4 12mm screws and nuts through 1/4” baltic birch plywood scrap. the ply fits into routed dadoes in the cheeks for easy disassembly. or, it can sit on the desk again with the vesa mount removed. finish is just a couple of coats of danish oil after a quick sand and 1/16” round over on the edges. seems okay so far. it wobbles a little but should be stable enough. i’d like to mount the DT next to it on another vesa arm next.
edit: DT is mounted now but maybe not in its final location. it’s nice to get gear off the desk while still keeping it accessible. i prefer the DT to be closer for easy of tapping out stuff on those clicky-clacky keys.
