Any idea where I can buy a table that is ideal for gaming? Must only have a flat top and no "lips" so I can attach my steering wheel. So needs to be sturdy and durable.

Get two sets or drawers the correct height and plonk a counter top from a hardware/wood place on top. If it's very long you support it with a 2x2" brace screwed to the wall so it does not sag in the middle but this will only happen if it's very long seeing as it's 32-35mm thick. Looking at about R700 for a 3.6m counter top.

Rental house so don't want to drill holes. In any case my 46" is an EOL LFD so can't find a stand for it. I'm using one of these:

buy a door, and mount it on the wall.

Don`t worry about drilling holes, its cheap and easy to fill and paint over it again.

No need to drill holes if the counter is not that long. My 2.4m sags about 3mm in the middle which fscks with my OCD, I can't see it but I measured it :eek:

That said there is no wobble or anything like that.

Sometimes when I want certain things I first check OLX and the likes. Not so long ago I wanted a computer table just like you. I searched for about a week on OLX. I found a woman who was moving to another country, she sold me a 1m x 800mm table for R300 and topped it up with an office chair. All for R300, I couldn't be any happier. I can put my case and two 23" monitors on the table. And it also leaves enough space for my keyboard and other stuff.
