A RAST bedside table becomes a monitor stand

Summary

Joe shortens the side panels of a RAST bedside table and quickly creates a stable monitor riser whose colour can be adapted. The conversion took about fifteen minutes. The stated cost was 20 US dollars.

Ideas

  • The top panel is kept as the monitor support.
  • Shortened sides determine the new height.
  • Wood stain matches the stand to the workspace.

Insights

  • Simple furniture changes can improve ergonomics more than expensive accessories.
  • The right screen height reduces poor posture in the long run.

Recommendations

  • Determine the target height before sawing.
  • Check load capacity and stability with the monitor on it.
