Adjustable Standing Desk

I had created my version of the Adjustable Standing Desk in 2018 and I believe I had failed to post here in the gallery as requested by Nathan of "CNC Router Parts LLC, a company that supports individuals and volume production businesses with affordable industrial CNC machines, parts, software, advise, and accessories." (taken from Vectric Website)

My Version may not be an improvement in construction but the cost is far cheaper than the $700.00 quoted of their design (in 2018)

I replaced the 3 Extrusion Supports with 2" X 4" blocks. For the Rail Slides I had found a more cost effective slides at Amazon.com.
Used Screws of various sizes instead of inserts and fasteners. Of course, the inserts and fasteners would work much better if the Standing Desk was to be assembled and dis-assembled for transport. In my case, I use the Standing Desk in my Workshop. And as such I changed from the fixed feet to stationary wheels on the Forward side and movable caster wheels on the Rear Side. Now my Standing Desk can be easily moved around my workshop. Also instead of Steel round bar for the Gear Rotation Mechanism and the Lock I have replaced them both with wooden dowels. Just have to remember not to lean on the top or not to put anything of extreme weight on the table top for the dowels could probably twist/snap.

The Adjustable Standing Desk has been a very useful addition to my workshop!!! It supports my workshop laptop very well. Oh and by the way the Mouse doesn't complain!!!

I really like projects that are a work of art and functional. That is one fine desk.

I just did a calculation at today's Prices of most of their items noted in the build and it came to about 1,014.00

The Extrusions and Slides were the most expensive costs!

Thank You Steve!!! Agreed!

It has been a very functional and attractive desk in my workshop!!!

Where can I find plans for this desk?

[meflick]

Nice work.I hope to give this one a try one day.

KeystoneKen, here is a link to the YouTube video which also has a link to the plans. (Although that link is not presently working for me.)



If you have a Vectric account, you can sign into your portal, go to the “partner project archive” area and download the plans from there.

The notes say “ At our 2017 user group meeting one of our partners CNC Router Parts presented their adjustable standing desk project and very generously gave away the plans for the desk to be reproduced free of charge.”

When in doubt substitute www for relaease in release.vectric.com See this link

Thanks for that. I had been able to access it through my Vectric account but didn’t want to post a direct link to it from there as I have seen on occasions in the past that with some sites, the link showed through the person’s account. Since I wasn’t sure if it would or not, and didn’t have time to explore, I went with YouTube link. I try to always check links to make sure they work if I’m sharing so I knew the link to video worked and if a person had a Vectric account they could get to it that way so I didn’t take time to explore just then why that particular link was not working. Good to know what issue may have been. Thanks for sharing that tip.

Very nicely done. A++. I'm going to check out the You Tube video and may attempt this one. Thanks for sharing.
