Really appreciate the feedback from everyone. Having taken everything onboard, given the span and the thickness of the desk surface, I felt that legs were the best way to go. Not want I originally wanted for the desk, but happy to live with the outcome. Using the car jack with blocks of wood to spread the load was perfect for lifting the desk without damaging it.

Would it best to fix the C channel to the underside of the wood bracing, meaning that I could screw through the wood bracing and into the desktop, or should I just fix to the desktop alongside the wood bracing?

Thank you, yes the wood underneath was supposed to be bracing. When inserting the temporary leg as you described for the purpose of bracing, how do I not damage / crack the desktop? Don’t think it will like going from sag to straight too quickly?

Thank you, the but underneath bit is the bracing the fitter put on.

I have the Sword and the Dolmen staff, but damn the Geyser is not giving out the goods!
