Question Joining Galant Desks?

Moving into a new house, designing a computer room and I want to put my work area and my wife's work area together in a T-fashion, but I don't want to do it the way they show in the galant booklet, I want to just them on the other side.

Is it possible to put two galant desks together on the skinny (23 5/8) side? and if so, can you put quarter rounds on them so they have the half round look?

Guessing it's not possible with the lack of response.

I've read previous posts that say the effektiv used to be able to do that. Real shame, guess I'll just keep searching for a desk for me.

Re: Joining Galant Desks?

If you buy the proper underframes, you can join a bunch of tops together, beyond what the Galant system "allows".

Depending on the size of the tops to be joined, you would buy the regulation frames for those tops, plus an extra frame for a half-round top, and then use the square metal tubes that come with that frame to join together the other under frames.

If you give me an idea of the layout you're looking for, I could be more specific as to exactly how to do this.
