Engineer's Desk

Hello. I had this idea for long time. As we all spend much of our life's in front of desk and screens making some good things, and bcoz I like computer hardware a lot, I made kinda like ideal workspace for my self. I really enjoy clean looks and open spaces, so taking that in mind, and the thing, that nothing can be better than 3x30inch screens (with 2560x1600 resolution) I made this desk specialy for them, but in same time keeping in mind that there are 27 inch screens aswell. So all the desk is made from metal frame, the frame has 3 parts, right, middle and left, that are srewed togeather, as desk it self is massive, I made it so, it can be moved to needed room etc, and than basicly put togeather, and it helps with cable management aswell, I will explain that later. Top, same as stands for PC and printer/fax/scaner/whoteva You need, is made from glass, as I love clean looks. All the glass parts use rubber gaskets, so no vibrations from printer or PC is somehow interferencing the main frame or top. About the cable management, idea was to keep it all as clean as possible, but in same time, 3 screens means 3 power cables + 3 connection cables to PC + additional for USB, if You need it, and atleast 1 screen should use it, so mouse and keyboard can be added, in case favorite one uses wire. So, to make it all possible, before putting main frame togeather You need to run all cables You need from PC (there is cut above PC to let them into frame) to screens thrue right frame part, than when its connected to middle part (tube) they can go inside it, and up to hole just below screen mount, in same time, power cables can go insaid middle frame part and run out in the down section where user should have 3 wall power outlets, and that way everything is clean when You look at it. About the mounting for screens. I designed it so it can be fully adjustable and changable, as every1 of us is different, even me, at some point, I may want to change the screen location. Mount it self can be moved up and down that way changing high of screens. Every part of it can be rotated and left and right screen can be pushed more to inside or outside, as thats the dimension that is always changing. In same time, mount has special corbels, so it is possible to get all wires to left and right screen and they hide below mount's frame (You can see them in pictures with mount). Desk has adjustable rubber feet so it always sits in level with ground and all feet's are fully touching ground, in same time, again absorbing vibration and in same time noise. I added the PDF file with drawing including all the main dimensions and features of desk. Monitors are there only for basic looks (they have main dimensions same as 30inch Dell's should, but thats it). This was made only from pure idea of mine, I never checked if there is something like this aviable already. Got some wall of text here, but I wanted to explain atleast some basic idea's behind it. At the end, i would like to say, that this is really expensive setup, but if You have the money, and in same time care a lot where and how you work, than this would be something that I would go for.
