Alternatively I have located a replacement desk. This is one of those last desk you will ever buy solutions:

Unfortunately at $2000 for the 72" version and shipping I think I would need to start a donation drive to afford it

The buy zero a kick ass desk fund, anyone? Hey in theory with a really nice desk (and perhaps if I ever got a new chair) I could sit at the computer longer and finish more wcs races...
