$260 for what is essentially a glorified $50 laptop stand, albeit with a power strip bolted on, internal cable routing and a groove machined in the top so your iPad or phone will stand up. Oh, and a couple of hooks for your towels/hoodie.

Hello WelshinPhilly and All,

I got this at Harbor Freight and it is fairly heavy duty (220 lbs) .... Need to add a power strip though .... the price is right ......

A local Xterra guy who makes those. I see him all of the time on the mountain bike trails. Nice guy. Myself, I use a stack of rubbermaids beside my bike for watching movies.

I used some scaffolding to make a standing / biking desk - adjusts to almost any height - holds a ton of weight and when not on the trainer I can paint the ceiling.

Hello Thomas Gerlach and All,

I like it ... will get closer to my bike over the front wheel ..... my Harbor Freight unit won't get that close .... Maybe the Harbor Freight unit can go in the kitchen or be useful for tools.

Ordered the Medical Table for delivery in 3 days.

The new small flat screen TV's are very light and should fasten easily to that bedside Medical Table for Trainer Road and the like ....

If it doesn't work for my bike I will use it to serve breakfast in bed to my wife on Valentine's Day.

Thanks

Cheers, Neal

mine is a discarded plant stand that was on its way to goodwill and a large cardboard box that held my filters for my furnace.

I use mine all the time in bed, but unfortunately the cooking part for me hasn't happened.

I was waiting for the fern thread to be a joke but I gave up on the first page.

Someone asked about a music stand - I got the nicer one from Guitar Center for $50 vs the less expensive shakier one for $35. My criteria was: has to survive a cat possibly jumping on it. I'm happy with what I got but it seems the medical table is really the best idea.

PS, my original pain cave was also an unglamorous basement. Dreary as hell but got the job done.

To breathe, to feel, to know I'm alive.

Mine is a dreary basement - until we got the walls recovered with white stucco/plaster stuff it looked like something out of "Silence of the Lambs", although it does have a cement floor not dirt. The one "luxury" I've granted myself is to hook up a 32" LCD using a folding ceiling-mount bracket, mounted to the joists. It has the ability to swing up and lock into place so that the TV can sit parallel to the ceiling when not in use, but I never bother doing that as it's out of the way anyway. Laptop sits on my workbench next to my bike/trainer but a laptop stand/medical table would probably work a lot better.

And that fern thread is gold.
