If you are going to be hacking stuff you might want to look at getting 
some used furniture. The State surplus store often has furniture

I believe there is a U of M surplus store also, but I never been there.

May not be exactly what you want, but it might give you some idea's on 
what to do. Maybe even get you some parts.  And you could bring a few 
keyboards and set them out and see how they fit!

Just an idea.

Good Luck!

BTW. I still am using the bricks and plywood I was using in College (20 
years ago). With a 3x8 foot desk with three monitors (2 old 21inch crt's 
and a lcd) on it two keyboards (and it is facing the door). I mostly use 
one keyboard with x2x... unless I have to run Windows, or configuring a 
new system, then I have to use the other keyboard and monitor!  Yea I 
have a very messy office.
