In this video we are going to be going over how to build a monitor stand from scratch, by yourself for less than $50.
Desk shelves and monitor stands are such good accessories to have on your desk, they give you another area to store and place things, or even better store and place items underneath.
I have a pretty small desk, so it's important that I optimize every inch of the desk, so a desk shelf just makes complete sense. I found that nicer desk shelves are expensive! Which is why I'm showing you how I made my desk shelf.
This desk shelf build features a nice walnut wood top, three legs to separate sections, a shelf with a wireless charger in.
The inspiration for this desk shelf came from @Nvzion / cew_p1aapzm
And the original is from Grove Made grovemade.com/product/walnut-...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Items You'll Need:
- Wood panel top
- Three legs
- Walnut varnish amzn.to/3jRDyWD
- Shelf
- Sand paper amzn.to/2GpscM5
- Black spray paint amzn.to/3mS60Kb
- 5 x angle bracket amzn.to/2TSlrWd
- Felt amzn.to/2JzdZgM
- Thin Wireless charger amzn.to/38731cx
Total - $44.43

I’m digging my new desk shelf, finally feels like I’ve completed my desk now! Anyone else always tweaking their setup?

Awesome job! I’m currently in the process of getting pieces together to build my own desk. Definitely want a desk shelf and glad I came across your video. Quality looks great. Plus there’s no better feeling that making something yourself. The desk shelves on those sites are insanely overpriced. Hope to see more content come! Thanks again!

Very good but don’t sand down the top part of the legs because that reduces the amount of surface they can use to touch each other and will reduce sturdiness

That's really cool. And I'm glad you had no experience with this and still went for it. My first project is gonna be something similar (a "shelf" for my desktop PC on the ground so I can store books, sleeping aids, etc. there). Question, did you use a screw driver to screw in those screws?

I like the finished product but I think it would be better if it was a bit deeper like at least 10inches so you could put probably some studio monitors so something of that sort. Great video though.
