What if the future room is bigger but long and narrow making a corner desk and a full size bed difficult to have. If you're sure it'll be soon, you might consider buying something that can hold you over for awhile. When I was in a similar situation (small space, likely going to move soon) I was just using a folding table from costco I bought on the cheap. When I moved I switched to my normal desk, an Ikea Jerker, and now use the folding table to hold crap in the garage.

They aren't really geared towards individuals but they were extremely helpful. The cost was also significantly below MSRP. You may want to look into local office supply companies.

You probably pay more in electricity per day to run your computer. Also some of us sit in our chairs a lot. I don't have a super expensive chair, but I sit in it for 12 or so hours a day on a regular basis. Might as well go for something really nice at that point.

Chopper posted:What's the deal with the M16? It is an M4, and it isn't even mine. I am working in Iraq as a contractor, which is why my entire life is crammed into about 100 sq. Ft. right now. And yes, it is a serpa holster, it has a button on the side that has to be pressed to unlock the pistol. Enough gun chat, I am thinking of picking up a large butcher block table top to use as a desk when I get home, how sturdy are the ones from Ikea? Like are they actual wood, or just a wood looking laminate? Now that I have Apple stuff, I am starting to really like the more minimalist look of some of these desktops.

But even the fiberboard stuff is very sturdy - I got an 8 foot piece of fiberboard countertop covered in white high-pressure melamine laminate from IKEA, and stuck six VIKA adjustable legs on it. It's working great.

So I think I'm done. Picked up the monitor/keyboard/magic mouse today. Oh ya, a chair the other day too  Just need some sort of dock for the Air. Either the Henge dock when it comes out or I'll grab the book arc stand.

Chalkboards make the worst loving noises in the world and I would hate that. Especially the chalk dust. A giant whiteboard, on the other hand, would own.

Ive done a wall and what helped was I sanded the wall with a super high grit sandpaper like I would before like painting a car, something your normal painter wouldn't think to do as hes never dealt with a paint that thick.

Hairs are probably the roller fibers.
