Hey there. I am planning on building myself a new desk in the next few weeks and have been trying to find some good parts sites or maybe even custom desk builders online. I'm a web developer, have 3 computer setups that I'd like to include into the workstation, and I have unlimited space. (My roomate's gone so his bedroom is now my office)
Anyone have any links for me? Has anyone here done this before?

i built my desk out of a solid core door my dad's company had left over after a project... it's 6 1/2 feet long and 3 1/2 feet wide... for the legs, i got galvanized with threaded ends and flanges from lowes

thanks MLP. I'll check out those legs. I am kinda looking for the legs that go on the very ends and are at a 45 degree angle.
I am planning on going L shaped, 5'2"x2'8" with a height of 2'8". All I need to find are those leg parts, and then some of the cool power supplies and cable managers you can embed into the desktop...
