Hi! I’m Kip Hakes, I’m a 42-year-old Blogger, Vlogger and Designer. I’m married to Vicki and I’ve got two children, and a Cavachon called Duggee. We live in the Essex countryside just outside of Colchester.

I’ve blogged since 2008, and my blogging subjects include – Parenting, Technology, Reviews, Photography, Rants and Raves and more. I’m Designer of stuff by day, and a total nerd at night.

In today's video I'm seeing if it's possible to put a Monitor Arm on to an IKEA Desk - an IKEA Rodulf desk to be precise! I'm REALLY putting this to the test by mounting my HUGE and HEAVY Ultrawide monitor on to the desk! The thing is, IKEA desks aren't made of solid wood. They tend to have a wooden frame and are filled with a cardboard honeycomb and a thin top. This doesn't bode well for most monitor arms.Will it work? Or will it all crash to the floor? Watch and see!Here's my Monitor - https://amzn.to/43fHvyk Here's the Monitor Arm I got - https://amzn.to/4d3m3A4 Here's the mounting plate I got - https://amzn.to/44nSUgIAs an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.Drop a comment below!Join or Support my Channel here - https://kiphak.es/supportJoin the WhatsApp Channel for exclusive updates and BTS stuff.. it's FREE! https://kiphak.es/whatsappFilming Equipment POV Camera - Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses - https://kiphak.es/RayBanMetaYT Microphone - RODE Wireless Pro - https://kiphak.es/rodewirelesspro Face Camera - Canon EOS M6 Mk 2. - UK - https://kiphak.es/CanonM6-Mk2-UK - USA - https://kiphak.es/CanonM6-Mk2-USA Face Camera Lens - Canon EF-M 22mm f/2 STM Lens - UK - https://kiphak.es/Canon-Lens-UK - USA - https://kiphak.es/Canon-Lens-USA Overhead Camera - Sony ZV-1 - UK - https://kiphak.es/Sony-ZV1-UK - USA - https://kiphak.es/Sony-ZV1-USAOur channel is powered by Hyperoptic fibre broadband - https://hyperoptic.kiphakes.tvIf you fancy getting me a coffee go here - https://www.ko-fi.com/kiphakesPeruse my Wish List here - https://wishlist.kiphakes.tvOr follow me on Instagram - https://instagram.com/kiphakes Threads - https://www.threads.net/@kiphakes Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/kiphakestv TikTok - https://tiktok.com/@kiphakestv00:00 Can You Mount a Monitor Arm on an IKEA Desk? 00:30 Enter the 39" Ultrawide Monitor 01:08 New Monitor Arm Overview 01:48 Specs, Ratings & Compatibility 02:26 Clamp vs Grommet Mounting for IKEA Desks 02:57 What This Video Will Cover 03:28 Reinforcement Plate for IKEA Desks 03:57 Thanks to Channel Members 04:38 What's Included in the Box 05:29 Mounting Plates & VESA Setup 06:13 Clamp Mechanism Explained 06:53 Thoughts on Build Quality 07:30 Cable Management & Accessories 08:13 Reinforcement Plate Dimensions 09:00 Final Setup Preview & Tools Included 09:42 Preparing the Desk for Mounting 10:31 Aligning the Base & Desk Centre 11:10 Tightening Clamp Under the Desk 11:49 Installing the First Support Pole 12:37 Mounting the Monitor VESA Plate 13:13 Adjusting for Monitor Size 13:52 Installing the Top Support Pole 14:43 Adjusting the Pole Height & Gap 15:27 Final Mounting & Impressions 16:03 Final Thoughts & Links in Description 16:31 GAME OVER
