Home made for free:



Corner desk:
  • Desktop cut from a Boardroom meeting table being discarded.
  • Uprights made from wood planks being discarded.
  • Keyboard slider made from a stair tread...being discarded.

Or if you are not into the DIY thing, then perhaps a corner desk like this:

^^ you should start producing more of those O_O

Though, I already have a corner desk at the moment. I'm actually looking more for a straight desk with a hutch or shelving.
