What are your current desk/workbench setups like?

It's been a while for this kind of post, I managed to get a new desk from ikea to finally replace the horror I had, it was hollow cardboard filled wood that started to bow in the middle.

I admit this is when I first set it up, it now has a bunch more stuff on the desk :D but at least there's more room for activities.

My cable management leaves some to be desired though.

Tidy. Good set up for CoD! The shelves on the left and the right are not part of my workbench, just bookshelves in the room I use. Also, ignore the shelves on the left side of the set above the desk…

I refuse to be shamed into putting stuff away that is happy where it is.

I know where most things are !

I'm about to put it on Ebay. It turned out to be very little help for the kind of work I do. When I bought it I was expecting to make a reasonable number of boards of the same type but that aspect of work has never developed and instead I make lots of different boards in very small numbers (usually 4 or 5). It takes far longer to set up the P&P than it saves. The other issue is needing all the parts on reels.
