I have a homemade desk, I made it out of ply wood and painted it black. It's starting to get worn out and would like a new one before my new PC gets here next week ( White Crimson ) Any Ideas? Would like a Tabletop and legs, not the desk already built

Just go to your local diy store and buy the tabletop and legs you want.

It's probably your best bet to buy from IKEA.

Stop by your local store and check them out for sure though.

I'd just get some worktop in the design/colour you want and grab some legs, nice, simple, easy.

I did not realise there was ikea in the US. Yeah get that that table top, you could also get a second if you want to make a nice corner desk. Then just choose which ever leg you like.

I have the same desk, it's good. The cheaper legs from Ikea are fairly flimsy, but you don't have to use legs. I, personally, purchased two of the desks(the one linked before), and use one of them as a back on the desk(hide dem nasty cables), and then purchased two of these drawer sets;

One for each side of the desk, instead of using legs. More stable than the cheapo Ikea legs and great for storage. It is a little expensive but it's not overly expensive IMO and I love mine. Keep in mind, darker coloured desks and what not, will scratch easier and will show scratches more than lighter coloured desks which can be a pain.
