Homebuilt LAN tables.

[natto fire]

Hello all,
About 5 months ago a friend of mine and I built these tables in my basement. They are definitely more sturdy than any assemble yourself desks. Also is convenient to have built in cat5 plugs and 5 outlets per table. They're great for LAN parties.

Sorry the pictures are crappy I only have a Sony DCR-TRV340, decent camcorder sucky stills .

The starting frame with outlets in place

Kind of hard to see in this pic but there are 3 CAT6 wires in each table

The finished tabletop, tables are 8' x 34"

tables in my basement computer room

seats three prett comfy

The best part is they only cost me about 150 total materials from Lowes. Already had the electrical wire, and the CAT6 wire laying around. And that is including the two 8 ft sheets of oak veneer plywood.

Man, if we had room for than in HS, those would have been great.

We had 5 people at the lan every weekend and any day we weren't in school. Everyday for 3 months in the summer.

It was more Duke3D, TA, and Shadow Warrior than any five people should be exposed to.

shadow warrior... who want to some wang?!?!

yeah, those desks look really nice... I don't know if they're deep enough for my taste, but they sure beat the ping pong tables I've had to endure at some lans. :beer:

The one with the fridge underneath of it is my Linux box which is not used very frequently

With the money you saved, buy yourself a digital camera.
