Anyone know where I can find one? The one I currently have is getting stressed from my 21" monitor.. and I want to get a nice strong wooden table.. Anyone know where I can find one? Thanks.

Staples? Best Buy? CompUSA? Just llok around? Doesn't even have to necessarily have to be a computer store either. I suggest you just go to home depot, get some supplies, and build one. Than you get exactly what you want.

I use a Kitchen Table and it works great with or without the Leaf...many can be found cheap @ thrift stores.

Or an old wooden desk.
150# all in the same place is a bunch.

I dunno, it sounds like you're producing a torture chamber.

2x4's and a 4x8' sheet of 3/4" cabinet-grade plywood will build you the strongest table ever.

You can even stain it and make it look halfway decent.

Go to home depot and ask someone in the lumber department how to build one.

 

[Nate-X]

We have no home depot! Maybe lowes.. Thanks MD I'm definately looking for something high str!

NateX ...I have 3 CRT's on on my Kitchen Formica Table (21",19",17") 6 Bricks that I put an upper shelf (hutch if you will) on loaded with CD's and Books plus 2 Printers on top of that...works great and plenty of leg room!

 

[Nate-X]

I think I may just get a 4x8' sheet of 3/4" cabinet-grade plywood per MikeD's suggestion and make a couple 3.5ft tall x 1ft wide x 4 ft deep bases... That should work correct? I want to make the table as easily portable (3 pieces) yet strong as possible.
