    :yes: Thanks lol. It was much easier doing it with his equipment and shop instead of a garage/driveway. He just finished making his "finishing room" with ventilation and this was the first item stained in it. A lot less pollen that way lol.

    Now he wants to make his own PC desk too. It is definitely worth it. Much better than buying a prebuilt desk. For about the same cost of a store desk I got the materials (wood, cables,cable dressing, etc). I got to make it out of some gorgeous looking Birch wood instead of vinyl wrapped MDF. I know that it will support the 85 lbs of weight pulling forward from the 3 monitor mount. I also put Ikea adjustable legs on it, so I can get it into just the right spot. But I guarantee this is much heavier than any of the store built "gaming desk" lol.

    And In the end you get to put some pics of "your new desk". Which is pretty cool to me lol. :wink:

    Some pics of it? I was thinking about making mine a floating desk. But I like your idea since I don't plan on staying in this house forever.

    The consensus is that the 8" and 10" versions of this are horrible. The 12" does better, but for combo machines you don't want the cheap ones.

    I think it's more of a design flaw and fit/finish. Lots of reviews out there, mostly negative.

    Guys, I am obviously not at the level of any of the talent in this thread, however does anyone have a recommendation for a cordless pin nailer?
    I have all Milwaukee cordless tools and all Dewalt corded tools, yet it looks like Milwaukee doesn’t offer a cordless pin nailer.
    I do not want to be attached to a compressor because then I will have to be in the garage and down here is just to hot an humid to spend hours in there for most of the year.
    Thanks

    Ryobi and rigid are decent brands are talking pin nail or brad nails? They have both. I use ryobi cuz i have more stuff and would be too expensive to switch over to rigid
