Appreciation post: the IKEA shelf trick I saw at a friend's office

I visited a buddy's home office last weekend in Austin and noticed he used a simple IKEA Lack shelf as a standing desk riser. He stacked two of them on their sides and put his monitor right on top, cost him $15 total. It freed up so much desk space for his keyboard and coffee mug. Has anyone else repurposed cheap furniture like that for their setup?

Pretty sure your buddy just wanted an excuse to buy Ikea shelves.

Wait, he actually drove all the way to Ikea just for that?
