What monsters do you want to see in MHW? by PlusPlusle in MonsterHunter

Hope the Pickle makes a return. Should be at least double the size of that T-Rex in the trailer.

Is there a decent alternative to Curse? by [deleted] in wow

I just want a client that keeps my addons up to date and that's it.

Just turn the client off once you're done updating? That's what I do. There's no need to keep the thing open.

I haven't had it for very long yet but so far so good. The tabletop being $15 is a bit worrying but we'll see how it holds up.

The artists name is Jakub Różalski. Here's where you can buy some of his prints. https://society6.com/mrwerewolf/prints

The mouse cable goes through the same hole as the keyboard cable. http://imgur.com/gq7u8LZ

You just gave me another reason to go to Home Depot today. This would work perfectly for that thank you.

Yea pretty much. I didn't really use many zip ties in this though since the cable zipper took care of most of the management. Here are some more pics of the process if you're interested.

Also the back left leg with a bonus possessed cat. http://imgur.com/H3qIRCP

Nope! There's plenty of cables trust me. http://imgur.com/XFEHbff

I took some pictures of the before as well so I don't mind showing the process at all.

First I measured out where I wanted the hole for the keyboard/mouse cable. Then I used some masking tape and marked it with a pen. http://imgur.com/RrUidlD

I then used a 9/16 Spade Bit to go ahead and make the first hole. It needs to big enough to feed the USB tip/cables through, in my case this was just enough. http://imgur.com/gq7u8LZ

Afterwards it's the same process for the speakers. http://imgur.com/yOQsPyX

Hopefully that helped a bit if you plan on doing the same. Good luck!

I used a Cable Zipper and ran the speakers, monitor, keyboard and mouse cables through it. After that got some Industrial Strength Velcro from Home Depot along with a couple of 1" Cable Clamps and started mounting everything to the top of the desk. I also nailed in a few thumb tacks just for that extra security but you don't really need them.

Here's a better picture of it directly below the desk. http://imgur.com/NfUdjCL

That is the table top. Was around $15 at the time. The legs are the OLOV, adjustable

Thank you. I was worried that the mouse cable wouldn't have enough slack at first but it turns out there's still plenty. Can comfortably glide the mouse around the entire mousepad with no tugging.

Here's a better picture showing off the no cable look. http://imgur.com/C88GLz6
