[2024 Edition] Emu's Desk Tour and Memorandum of Material Desires

Hello, I'm Emu.
Thank you for reading this article!

After looking at everyone's desks, I wanted to do a desk tour too, so I wrote this article. My main focus is...

When I watch YouTube or Instagram, I get envious thinking, 'Everyone uses such nice things,' but I hold back and focus on building a great desk with cost-performance in mind!

Around the desk

I use an L-shaped desk from Sanwa Supply. I bought it about 10 years ago. I climbed on the tabletop to clean the windows and blinds, so the frame is slightly warped. I store the wiring and adapters for each device in a Daiso wire basket hooked onto the tabletop. I really want to upgrade to a FLEXISPOT electric standing desk...

Nitori Wagon

This is a side wagon I bought at Nitori around the same time as the desk. It's black, matches the aesthetic, and I have no complaints. I really like it.

YSAGi Desk Mat

I've tried several desk mats, but this is the one I wish I had chosen from the start. It has great cost-performance and was a best buy. My only concern is that with long-term use, the leather part and the non-slip backing tend to peel apart.

✅ DIY Desk Shelf

I had some leftover boards from an old iron rack I bought at a variety store called salut!, so I made a desk shelf by attaching Daiso styrofoam bricks (black) with double-sided tape. You can easily make one with color boards sold at home centers, so give it a try.amesoba wooden monitor standI want an...

Desk Chair

I believe the manufacturer was Supzmg. (The specifications might have changed.) I bought it about 5 years ago.'It looks cool, like a Star Wars Stormtrooper'is what I remember thinking when I bought it. I laid down a desk mat to dampen the noise.

I want a Herman Miller desk chair...

Around the PC

DELL Latitude E7240

I bought it used about 6 years ago. (I think it was around 30,000 yen.) I removed the battery and am using it as a desktop PC in clamshell mode. By the way, I run it 24 hours a day and have replaced the SSD twice.

DELL XPS 15

I use it for creative work like Lightroom and Photoshop. It has a graphics card, so I can also play games. Since there are many parts available for DELL, maintenance, management, and operation are easy. I also like the designs, as many of their models are cool.

HP ProBook 635 Aero G8

My first Ryzen model. Besides these, I have about 5 other computers. Why did I end up with so many...? I want a computer that glows brightly...

Monitor

The 29WL500-B is my main (bottom) monitor, and the 24ML600S-W is my sub (top) monitor. I bought both of them cheaply during an Amazon Prime sale. I use the 24ML600S-W as a sub-monitor. It's great to have a wider workspace. I want a color management monitor (EIZO) or a 4K monitor (LG would be fine)...

Monitor Arm

WORLDLIFT Monitor Arm for 2 screens (vertical)

I use a vertical-mount type monitor arm from WORLDLIFT. I've been using it for about a year, and it hasn't wobbled or broken.

Keyboard

Logicool MX Mechanical MINI Red Switch

I am using the MX Mechanical MINI. As expected, I think Logicool is good. The typing feel of the red switches and the battery life are also good. I have been using an English layout keyboard, so I wish they would sell the Windows version of the English layout keyboard in Japan as well. I want an HHKB Professional HYBRID Type-S...

Mouse

Logicool MX Master 3s

The mouse is the MX Master 3s. The high-speed scroll wheel is comfortable. Logi Bolt has low latency, so there is no stress in operation. It is multifunctional, and being able to use it according to the task by utilizing Logi Options+ is great.

Wrist rest has made my work easier. It would probably be even more effective with a trackball mouse.

Monitor light

Quntis monitor light

I am very satisfied with this one in terms of design, price, performance, and operability. It has changed the brightness and atmosphere around my desk. I am also curious about the OOWOLF monitor light. I want the BenQ ScreenBar Halo...

Other gadgets

Lenovo TAB6

I signed the contract just as the store clerk said, 'This is a good one!' They really understand the psychology of gadget lovers. It has mid-range performance and is easy to use. It comes with a PC mode, so if you connect a keyboard and mouse, you can work on the go. Since the return date is coming up soon, I would like to try the next model, the Lenovo TAB7...

Smartphone stand

A smartphone stand from 3COINS. I use a style where I place my smartphone on the desk, so I use it for my Lenovo TAB6.

Houseplant

It has a double-structured bottom-watering mechanism called an Aqua Pot, which makes watering easy. I like this design because it fits my desk well.

I found this Strelitzia reginae at a general store in the next town about four years ago. The basket is from MUJI. I want a tall, magnificent Strelitzia nicolai...

ClocTeck Nixie tube clock

I was able to buy it for about 6,000 yen during an Amazon sale. I like its stylish design.

Indirect lighting

Indirect lighting from 3COINS.

In conclusion

I chose these with a focus on cost-performance. Some items I have been using for a long time, and they are all great products. I don't think my criteria for choosing things will change in the future. I want to take good care of them. Also, the wall looks a bit bare, so I'm thinking of using 2x4 lumber to build a rack.
