Quick sketch of my ideas. I am looking to build a floating computer desk with a pull out for the keyboard/mouse. Are there any reasonably priced $75) under mount slides that feature a push to open and lock in the fully extended position? Is there another DIY way to form a lock. I don’t want the keyboard platform to move when extended, but I also have a small space so I need it to be retractable. I’m expecting 10†of extension past the desk top. So slides would need to be 12†full extension.
Second concern, how can I mount this, I should have 2 studs in the location. I was considering two L brackets to slot into the desk. Would a 5â€x 10†bracket support the weight of a monitor/console, and the desk built out of oak ply (working surfaces) and pine or poplar (panted bottom structure)?
Thanks for any help.
