Kee Klamp Desk

Step 1 Planning the layout of the desk

I wanted to build a desk that was taller than it was wider, I also wanted it to fit in a corner. First step was drawing out some rough drafts.

I drew these on clear plastic sheets so I could lay them on top of each other then separate them in order to look at each group of components individually.

If only Kee Klamps didn't cost so much ...

i agree , i have been looking t them for the last year , then i see the price and just has to be a much cheaper way, i hate to say it but i am sure china will knock them off and be a lot cheaper. I guess they are aimed more at the industry side where the price of the finished product is still half the conventional way, plus they can be reused at the next job site, very easily. i saw in one of the post on the alum 4 riser bed , that there is a overseas company selling a close comparison for half price. i am looking for a connector for the approx 1 inch ss tubing used in all the shelves, Seville is the orig manufacture i am fam with, now there are plenty of comparable. The tubing is much smaller, light duty compared to this.The nice thing is these shelving systems are everywhere, so the price of tubes is pretty cheap. That is a very nice desk .Really well done, good instructable too.

True, but in a way, they're a good investment.. you can't break 'em and you can always reuse them for future projects.. also, if you win the lottery.. you can totally go crazy and build a secret underground lair with 'em and then you can show them.. you can show them ALL!
