DIY Standing Desk 👇🏻

I’ve always wanted a standing desk but the ones I liked were either way too expensive or just looked super basic… so I built my own (this is my 4th one btw) and I’ll never go back

here’s how to make it:

1. get standing desk legs
just buy the frame/legs only (Amazon has a lot of good ones)
→ make sure they’re heavy duty (mine supports ~300 lbs)

2. choose a solid wood countertop
this is the key part
I used an acacia wood kitchen countertop with a live edge
– looks way better than typical desks
– feels premium
– super sturdy

3. attach the legs to the countertop
– place frame upside down
– measure + align
– drill pilot holes
– screw everything in

4. upgrade your setup (optional but worth it)
– cable management tray underneath
– power splitter (trust me you’ll need it)
– monitor arms / accessories

all my cables run into one place and only one clean cable goes to the wall = no mess

it’s honestly super easy and comes out 2x cheaper than most branded standing desks

if you want to build yours, I left links in bio 👀
