I have a laptop that I use for small jobs which sits next to my NAS, TV, and Modem/Gateway. It is connected to the ethernet there.
The cabinet top it sits on has storage underneath (which is fully utilized with my NAS and my UPS) with doors. Sort of like the base cabinets in a kitchen but at desk height.
It is very uncomfortable to work on because the doors of the cabinet that protect what is inside prevents one from working at the laptop because there is no knee space.
Storage solutions I have seen for laptop stowage are all "under the desk" slide out type. This won't work, as the cabinet prevents anything from being installed under the top. The doors for one, the storage of the NAS and the UPS for another.
I'm curious if anyone has seen a type of countertop type slide out for a laptop that would sit on TOP of the cabinet, with the laptop on it.
When work needed to be done, the laptop could be slid out on the slider and allow for knee space.
When done, the laptop could be slid back to it's at rest position.
Essentially going from a stowed position in the first pic, to the at use position in the second pic, and then back to stowed when done.
I could make one easily enough I suppose, but I'm looking for an already designed, store bought solution if possible. If that fails, I'll go ahead and design and make one.
