I took apart an old school teachers desk, you know!  The 200 pound marvel with a REALLY THICK particle board top, came in that ugly Putty color and every room had one.  Anyway, I took it apart and took super accurate measurements of the mounting holes.  I transferred those measurements onto a 1.25" angle Iron frame and I was very careful to have the mounting holes land exactly in the center of the frame rails.  I placed the Angle Iron Frame so the drawers closed one inch from the outside edge of the Galant Desktop.  Then welded it solid, (Yes, it does not come apart now!) and assembled the tops on the new frame, then the desk drawers with the legs cut short to the drawer cabinets.  This way the desk is exactly high enough for my 6'4" height and I can clean under it.  WIth the extra stiff frame I do not use a center support leg.  It is super solid and looks really retro, complete with the old-school 'scars' in striking contest to the black brown desktop!  Photo Restoration, Wine Label design and printing, Video and Audio production, Music Production, this desk has all my equipment in and on it!  I plan to build another Ikea-Hack for the Big Screen Television I have yet to purchase.  When my 27" CRT finally dies, I'll go for it!  But for now, this desk is perfect for me!  Total Investment, less than 300 bucks!
