Shawn Blanc:

Yesterday afternoon I raised the height from 27.75 inches to 38.5 inches…

The change is all in the legs and waist at this point. But it’s a good change. Instead of feeling sore from poor circulation I feel tired from standing.

I purchased my desk from Office Depot when I moved into my first apartment. It is made of plywood, with some kind of dark-wood facing/veneer. It’s comfortable, the right height (approx. 30 inches), and extremely heavy. Raising the desk is nearly impossible (did I mention the desk is extremely heavy?), unless you can find some Stark-designed magnets, or plastic risers from Home Depot. I like the idea in my head, more than I would like it in reality. Good-luck Shawn.
