    Help me find this!

    Alright, after hours of near fruitless searching I thought I'd throw this one out to you loverly people.

    I'm looking for a keyboard shelf to mount under my desk... a simple task you'd think, no?

    Well, no.

    PC World Business center sell them for £17 roughly, but they're out of stock and have been for weeks, despite telling me that stock will be arriving in 7-10 days.

    All I want is one of those shelves with the roller slider thingies that just screws onto the underside of a desk... searching the net all I can find is descriptions for desks with the shelves already fitted or rack mounted keyboard trays for stupid money... I just want the damn shelf and the roller slidey mounting bracket thingies!

    So, let's see what you guys can come up with cos I'm stuck.

    Making it myself isn't an option... I've looked into the cost of buying drawer runners, MDf and all that malarkey and it does isn't worth it...

    Plus I have precious little time to spend mucking around building it.

    Cheers for the links though, I'll most likely go to Ikea, purely cos I'll be down that way today... so if you see a half-naked dude being flung out of Ikea in Brent Park, that'd be me unable to resist re-enacting those tattoo Ikea ads.
