a minimalistic desk that doesn't max out your budget

james, inspired by the very droolworthy milk desk, went hacking to create a white and minimalistic work and music station. i love how the desk rolls away to reveal the keyboard. click to enlarge the image.

the ikea items used:
vika artur legs (x2) � $60
queensize malm headboard(x1) � $10 in the as-is
lack shelf (x1) � $25

other misc:
wall shelf metal tracking, 48" (x2)
casters (x4)
pipe insulation (to dampen the rolling sound)
screws

it involved lots of dremeling work the end result more than made up for it.

total cost: ~ $130
cost of milk desk: $4700
