Could I set the top portion/assembly on an existing desk like a portable drafting table and still have stability and a range of angles?

I think so . . . if you could take the support bars completely out and substitute some sort of platform for the remaining protruding receiver openings. There is a supporting base to the angle top. It contains a sliding drawer. The drawer would probably not function as a slider, however.

Not really. For the tilt assembly to function, it's required to stay attached to the drawer/top legs. You can hacksaw off the top of the legs, I suppose, and not attach the drawer, but it wouldn't have a solid/flat base to sit on; it would shift around & likely be back-heavy.

I tried to do that ...it's not the sturdiest ...there isn't much room on desk top - and nothing sits too stable. Really only for an 18 inch computer, even a 23 inch would be too large for the top - it wouldn't sit stably. I think if the top was not shaped the way it is, maybe square, it would work better for a standing desk. I like some of the design in general but the materials are crap. the veneer is like a skin of soft plastic stretched out over the particle board. I had a cup of tea on the middle shelf and the heat warped the plastic so it had a lose skin look to it.

I don't think it's possible, unless you are a very crafty individual. Corner is wood so you can drill, but back and front edges are metal, so you would have to measure precisely and use two methods of attachment since it's two different materials you are working with. It has plenty of depth for a keyboard and a monitor. Something that will help you scale the depth, I got a ps4 on it with at least 5 inches of space left. I also just want to say man, this table really makes my room come together :)

The desk is connected to the rest of the bed and provides some of the rigidity. You could assemble without it but I think you would need to provide some replacement for the support it provides. I haven't tried it just my opinion after assembling two of them.

Base on this model 6000 seriesThis has a larger than early models very stable fixed, does not swivel on center post.You can place on flat top surface a angle the entire assembly ...very stable if space and table top allows all of base to sit flat

I believe so! Every year or two any table will start to wobble. This desk has a hex wrench for installing the table. Keep it around in your artbin for future tighting and maintance.

I have this desk. I do not know its weight, but it is not light, and very stable. The only problem that I have is that the task is higher than normal computer desk. If you are tall, maybe it is not a problem at all.

Yep, sure can. I wasn't sure about this desk, but it has been very useful and very sturdy so far. Just watch out if you get a keyboard with some height - tends to rub in the underside of the shelf.

yes you definitely can. I bought an "X" shaped stand and I notice a lot of rocking with those. im sure a sturdy table at the right height would be just fine.

Absolutely! You can even alternate the 2 primary table/desk with the corner attachment - I've tried all different ways. This is definitely a great buy.

yes you can but you would probably need to get 4 shorter screws to replace the ones that attach the corner frame to the desks. I really like this desk for the money I paid.

cannot think there would be. You set where you place your chair. Short legs might be an advantage because you wouldn't hit your knees on the desk

Yes, I think so. As a matter of fact I just used it in bed this morning. I've had cheaper tables made for using in bed - breakfast trays and the like - but what I like about this portable desk is it's high-quality, plus it's adjustable surface. Obviously it's going to be more stable when placed on a harder, firmer surface - but it works fine when laying back propped up in bed.

I really can't tell you. The desk is not wood, it's a composite so I don't know if you could attach anything to it and hav it be stable.

Would be difficult. The metal supports for the desk's surface run underneath the entire desk. You could possibly attach one that descends as you pull it out.

The desk will be fairly stable. Those parts aren't required for structural support, though the bottom shelf is nice for assembly purposes (alignment reasons). I also don't recommend moving it after assembly if you can avoid it. It's not the sturdiest desk, but it's good for everyday use. Hope this helps

it is possible to do it but it may be a hassle - you have to unscrew things, readjust it and rescrew it. it's not simple - we did a workaround to this exact situation by putting another, lower desk with a chair to the side of this. there are definitely units you can buy with a crank in the front to easily raise/lower them but they are much more expensive
