I see these all the time in studios. A little side-car computer stand. Minimal and sturdy. I've searched all over the internet and can't find what I'm looking for. Does anyone know what company makes a good one?

I would (and did) knock together a little 3/4 plywood box and put rack rails on it. You can put whatever in it and roll it all over the place.

If you're going to be taking up space, go the utilitarian approach with nearly the same footprint and more functionality. You can use a rolling tool cabinet. Harbor Freight has good quality boxes... around $90. - $160. with storage space..

Thanks guys. My desk is kinda useless as is. Too big and I want to simplify. The sound anchors is kinda perfect. Going to visualize more and make a decision. It would be so nice to have an narrow computer desk with just speakers next to it.
I have the can mac. I could probably attach it to the post with zip ties and rubber lengths. Long thunderbolt cables are pricey. It will be fun figuring this all out.

It wouldn't take much to pimp it out. It could function as a rack mount too. Add some pillow button padding and some tassels and Bob could be your uncle  |

Take a look at The Container Store. It's a chain that I think has a national presence. You might find something there. I've bought wire racks for gear in my machine room and mic closet. It's good quality at a reasonable price and things are often on sale.

Hospital grade...thank goodness! I had a heart attack from the sticker shock . Ha the ones most hospitals use cost 3 times as much as their highest priced version, I asked my wife how much the ones KUMED used she told me, couldn’t believe it so the next time I was there I looked at the manufacturer and part number. It suddenly made sense as to why they charged me $5 for an orange I never waked for or ate, insurance won’t cover a $5 orange. |
