What a great idea, Amy. In the past, I used the same approach to change the height of a desk, depending on what I was working on. It wasn't to allow standing, just to allow the work to get closer to my eyes, so I could remove my glasses and not have to bend over to get close to the work. I'm more than a little near-sighted, as you may have guessed :). That was before I gained a few decades and needed lenses to help with close vision. The more I think about it, however, I may revive the arrangement. I wouldn't need a coffee table either, just a wooden box of appropriate height....... b On Wed, Jun 11, 2014 at 10:24 AM, Jennifer Gibas <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Hi Amy, I have a lightweight $30 IKEA Lack coffee table set on top of my > desk, legs cut to fit my height.
