Turned my L-shaped regular desk into a standing desk!
It started with my plane Jane L shaped desk, I got it because I started working from home. However, I didn't realize how much I miss moving around so I started looking into a stand up desk and my boyfriend came up with the wonderful idea just to get the legs for the riser.
So we ordered them and then he unscrewed the one side of the table where my computer is and screwed the riser legs right to it!
I decided to get a mini treadmill to put underneath as well!
