Is this model flexible enough to mount *above* the work area? My desk has nowhere for the clamp to attach, but the overhead shelves would work.

It probably will work. Depending obviously how high the shelves are. 12 to 15 inches will be fine. I also put an LED bulb in it to reduce power.

The actual mount is a round hole where the entire lamp sits in. There is a screw which allows you to secure the whole lamp. The had of the lamp can swivel in many directions and you can screw the pivots tight enough so they will stay in one position. This lamp is very big, as long add you have enough room to secure and pivot I don't see why not. The mount is just a metal clamp with a screw like press to fasten to a desk. Very similar to a C-clamp

Honestly I would not recommend this lamp.. The buttons on top have already broken and the 2 different light types are hard to get used to...
1648091
Yes, it is. I have one mounted about 9" above. Check the switch buttons ASAP, they tend to fall out.

The lamp is quite large and arm has a lot of swing. Not sure, only way it would work is if the shelf is a strong one and is secure, no wobble, and room for arm to swing. Hope you can make it work, it's a great lamp.

Yes you can make it swing out of the way. I would measure it but the back is inaccessible since I have installed it on my workstation. It will take a pretty thick desk to make it unusable. Any normal desk should be fine. minimum thickness is whatever you want providing the desk is capable of holding the weight. It is basically a C- clamp. Hope this helps.

I don't quite understand the question, but I have this mount on my desk and it us a fantastic device to hold my 2 24" monitors. It's versatile, sturdy, functional and looks great. The screw type clamp device that fastens it to my desk is well constructed and easy to install. I haven't measured the clamp, but it will need a couple of inches from the edge of the desk lip, and the thickness of the desk surface isn't an issue because the clamp can accomodate a fairly thick edge. Hopefully this addresses your concernDavid

I am in a very small area and when you raise the desk part it comes to you. If the base will fit on your desk you should have not issue. BTW. I am really enjoying mine!

The shelf in our garage sits flat on the concrete floor and is not anchored to anything. I wouldn't think you could anchor it to the wall above the floor and from what you describe only partly supported by a hard surface and expect it to hold anything of consequence without pulling out from the wall. The unit needs to sit on a surface with all four legs level with each other to perform as it should.

So long as your desk has a 2 inch lip on the edge for the clamp to screw up into, yes it could be set up. As for whether or not it would damage your desk, I suppose it would depend on the strength and thickness of your glass. The clamp can clamp on as thin a surface as you need but the desk mount with the monitor does put a lot of pressure on the clamp because it's holding up weight so far away. The clamp is a 2 square inch area that holds all the weight reaching out at an upward angle. I don't know how much weight your monitor + desk mount would be or what kind of glass you have, so I can't make a suggestion as to whether it would fracture the glass.

Sorry, but I don't think this will work for you. The top part of the clamp comes over the top of my desk a good inch before the bottom part can secure it tightly. It is a great lamp but it is very top heavy...

It is designed to be screwed in place. You may be able to rig some sort of mounting, but it is a bit heavy and need a very study mounting since it is heavy duty and can hold heavy items. You may be able to use wood under the shelf and mount it. Good luck, if it works it is a very nice addition.

The top part of the desk extends 1.5" out over rear vertical support. I've got a couple things clamped, but not a monitor stand..not sure how much space they need to clamp on to.

i think it would be doable. getting the clamp behind the desk will be tough with the cubicle wall, but you should be able to make it work.

I have two in my office. And each one is mounted differently, just as you have described. They work equally as well in both situations.

Yihong,I'm sorry I can't help you with that because I mounted it where I needed it not by using the clamp but by screwing it straight through to a metal plate and I didn't keep the clamp. I'm sorry I can' t help you but I can tell you it offers several mounting options so you can probably make it work for you. It is a good stand, that is for sure.Good luck, Frank

The clamp goes about 5" under the desk, length wise. It allows about 4" thickness of desk/clamp total. Does that make any sense?

I wouldn't clamp directly to the desk since you want to clamp pretty tightly. Put something between the clamp and glass (cardboard, some rubber, etc) to help spread the clamping force. ONce you have it clamped it should be fine though, of course, it is now balanced to the edge where the mounting arm is. If you don't have the glass secured to the base then it could tilt. That's less of an issue with this particular arm and more an issue with any weight close to the edge. My desktop tilted back a bit before I remembered to rescrew it to the base. :)

I have two of them, you don't mount them unless you are planning on heavy equipment going on top, they simply lean against the wall and the angled legs keep them stable. I use a laptop, printer and sometimes lean on the edge of the desk with my arms while working and I have never had a problem. Every once in a while they may shift and require an adjustment. If you were concerned about movement, you could potentially install an L bracket below to provide additional stability.

The peace under the arm that you twist to make it tight to the table can be on something that is not perfectly flat. However, it should be on something basically flat and in such a way that it will not slide. If it slides then you are in trouble. If it goes on crooked but in such a way that it is not going to move around you should be fine, within limits of course. The under table clamp is 1/2" or maybe a more from the edge of the table. so, if the decorative bevel is not too deep or does not extend too far from the edge of the table it should be find. I suspect you could have a decorative bevel one inch below the bottom of the table that extends one inch of the edge of the table and the arm will work find. No guarantee, but I feel reasonable confident that should not be a problem. If the clamping part hits the bevel but also hits the bottom of the table and will tighten in that position you should also be find. Again, no guarantees but I believe that would also work. Good luck, it's a great arm and very strong. The mounting bracket has several adjustments and in the worse case you can drill a single small hole through the table and put the locking peace directly under the table and it doesn't matter what that hole is. You can mount in in the middle of your desk (bad idea) or off to the side or close to the front, whatever you want, but you have to be willing to drill the hole. Good luck.

The base is heavy enough to hold dual monitors firmly in place. If you don't want the mounting feet on the stand, then you could drill a hole through your desk and install just the upright pole for the monitors. I know you mentioned you didn't want to drill, but just wanted to let you know the 2 standards mounting options for this stand.
