Anyone running a desk at standing level (or adjustable height for part time standing)? I've been curious about this lately after reading all the articles about sitting being bad for you.

I've been looking for work tables just like those in your office. Where did you find them? Or if you made them, can you give quick rundown of the materials used?

Which office (Home or ENTP)?

I'm interested in the home office desks.
