Random article describing a random Saturday afternoon of quarantine.

When I moved to my new place in SF I forgot to buy a nightstand, it was simply not on my list.But I quickly felt the need to have one to put my phone, headphones etc next to my bed.I had a box, from Amazon, so I used it as a nightstand for many months.

• First the problem It happens quite often that I use my computer before sleeping, and when I’m done I just put it on the floor next to my bed, which is no bueno!
• Second problem All these cables outside of the box became super messy, cable management is hard!
• Third problem This is not really a problem but not a taste, I would prefer to not see the cables going everywhere, let’s do something clean.

I needed a solution…

I had the idea to create a place for my computer inside the box nightstand, using another box.

The two boxes would look like this:

Work In Progress nightstand: a hole + the small box inside the big one:

First problem solved! 🥳

And for the second problem… well, let’s just put all the cables inside the box 🙃It was just a perfect match! 👩‍❤️‍👨

But what about, if I want to add something else to charge, should I really remove everything?

Obviously not, I created the first Amazon Window, sold separately, where you can access the only single-slot still available for an urgent need of a charge.
