home mixing station

i live in the uk so a uk store would be most benifical to me for obvious reasons, i'm looking to buy/make a desk - maybe 2 tiers... bottom for decks, mixer and top 1 for pc screen

my budget will be about �70-100 GBP max which is why i wonder if i would be best to make this myself? however, i'm doubtful i would do a better job than the cheap manufacturers.

quick example... forgot about pc k'board and mouse so if u could keep that in mind too - thanks

Buy a simple table for your equipment then put a shelf up (tier 2) that will hold the monitor, position it to suit - that's what I'm doing at the moment - it's a cheap alternative I think to a desk!

Sliding Keyboard/mouse underdesk mounting trays seem cheap if you need somewhere to stash them.

thnx for the replies... i have figured a plan from both of ur suggestions i think....

buy a wide desk... try and find one with a sliding tray on the bottom to keep my mouse and keyboard and just make the second tier myself?

dunno if that made sense... if i cant find 1 with a sliding bottom for the k'board/mouse... do u know if u can buy the stuff to attach them urself?

nevermind, i have bought a glass desk that is all on one level that is wide and deep enough for my decks/mixer/pc screen & keyboard to fit with a little space left for any future upgrades. that said i think it looks quite stylish too...
