My office was a mess (actually it's always a mess no matter what I do to it, but let's just gloss over that). There were bags of stuff on the floor, a turntable that didn't have a home, cables everywhere, etc. I decided to get some shelving, planning to put the keyboard on top and have plenty of space underneath for storage. Having bought and built a flat-pack pine shelving unit from a local hardware shop (I think it was B&Q, but can't remember), I discovered that it was too tall, and playing the keyboard would have been quite awkward. So I took the thing out to my garage and grabbed a tape measure and a saw.
Unfortunately there's no before picture showing the original height of the unit, but this is the result. All I did was remove the top shelf, then draw a line about six inches down from the top of each vertical support, and cut the tops off, then re-attached the top shelf. Now it's just the right height for the keyboard and there's still plenty of space on the second shelf for the turntable (minus the lid).
