In 2011 I bought $300 in various lengths of 1/2” plumbing pipe, couplers, and flanges, and one sheet of smooth plywood.
From it I made a standing desk, and a seated desk, both on four legs.
In my current home the same desks are now supported by two legs in front, with the back edge screwed to 2x4 mounted on the wall.
Moving again this year and will take the pipe but replace the plywood as it has a lot of screw holes, ugly holes for cables I made in a rush. Maybe, we’ll see. Seems like I’d have issues securing it since the holes are in just the right places already, but I might have a go in order to keep my desk budget at $300 in 2011 dollars.
The pipe is so sturdy I expect to never need to replace one piece of that.
