Glass shelf/desk

[Thoroughbreed]

Hi there! I'm new here, but I hope you can help me

I've got this 40x200 cm tempered glass plate, that I want to use as a desk for my home office.

BUT(!) How do I do it?

I need some tips on how I can do it, do I use some kind of brackets? And if so, what type?


Do any of you got any ideas? Thanks


Best regards Jan

Last office I worked in had glass desks, steel frame to protect edges and rubber support around inside edge of frame to hold glass. We got thru about 5 desk tops a week due to breakage.

Had 200+ desks and dumg staff used to sit on them
You could make a timber version of desk in link.

Well, I was thinking of something more simple ...?

You could put a couple of beer crates under the sheet.

Not simple as in "I don't want to do anything" - but simple as in "Simple looks"...

Like the glass hanging off the wall or something

Do you have blacksmiths in Denmark, they can make to measure wall brackets.

You have an Ikea?

Could use these legs as the base if you have them there that is.
