Even leggier

This weekend I toddled off to buy the various wood for another trestle and beam setup. Not boring you with the details this time around, so lest just say that everything went swimmingly. I also took the opportunity to shorten the legs by 10cm to get the rail height down to 120cm from the floor. The photo shows the result.

This is a far more comfortable height for my back. It is also surprisingly stable. I now just have to sort out where the bits that formerly lived under the layout will move too. The big problem will be the 2nd desk i have out in the Man-sion.

So, this is how its all held together.


The beams between the trestle drop into place on the inner side of the hinges. The modules then sit on top. The whole thing can be put together in less than 5 minutes.
