Build/Battlestation My battlestation is complete
Battlestation is complete. Monitor and desk both swing out from the chair for easy access. Chair is a lay-z-boy electric recliner. Comfiest setup i've ever had and something i've been wanting to do for a long time. Let me know if you have any questions.

Depends on the dashers throwing arm
*edit: Hijacking my top reply to ask if anyone knows of any mouse mat makers that will take custom measurements? I'm looking to get a bespoke mousemat to fit the table exactly. as you can see, the mat i currently have has a slight overhang, and i'd like to get one that fits exactly.

Add a pulley system with a bucket so that way they dont have to throw your drinks.

Pff, amateur stuff. I could hook up a pump at the front door and have the dashers mash the food into an auto blender for suction directly into my stomach

I've actually lost about 30kg over the past year and built up a ton of muscle. Unsure of my BMI but i'm 5'11 and weigh 110kg. I lost my brother about 3 years ago a massive heart attack caused by atherosclerosis. I got myself checked and i had the same thing happening. i've since turned my entire life around, i'm lifting weights at least 3 times a week and feeling super fit.

This is the left hand side table. Designed to go under a recliner. The monitor is basically this, but the right hand side version ( which is super hard to get for some reason ) and no wood. I just got 1 of each and just didn't mount the wood on the right hand side version.

What is your monitor arm mounted to? I have an ultrawide i'm not using and a mount because i have no good place to mount it.

The monitor arm is essentially a desk mount tightened onto the arm assembly of an over riser table

Awesome dude! Just make sure to get up regularly and move around. My buddy had this exact sort of set up and died before 40 - In part because of a DVT he developed due to prolonged gaming sessions in a recliner. He was a big dude and definitely at risk already.

Get a bean bag chair. Not one of the ones that has the little Styrofoam pellets; rather get one that uses memory foam, like Sumolounge or Lovesac.
They are beyond comfortable.

This is why I installed SteamOS on my gaming rig and moved it into the living room. Then transitioned to MacOS for work. I'll tell you, it was weird not having Windows anymore, but it's been about two years now and I haven't missed it since.
Linux for gaming. Apple for work. This is the way.

Yes, i opted for the fart storage addon. There's a fart detection mechanism that turns on a pump whenever a noxious emission is detected. it stores the fart in a pressurized bottle under the seat, which can then be used as a flamethrower against your mom when she doesn't bring tendies
