But I’d rather my husband’s setup not be such a fire hazard. Advice on cable management for a standing desk which can’t face a wall?

I don’t think it’s possible for it to get much worse tbh 😅

    You might start by finding a suitable cable management tray to affix to the trailing edge of the desk. That will likely obscure and clean up a majority of it: https://a.co/d/eJDyjWl

    Where are and what the hell are all the peripherals these cables are connected to?

    If it really is fire you’re worried about, route the power strips from separate outlets and avoid daisy chains.

    If you want prettier…most of those cables don’t look like the kind that could be replaced by something wireless, so probably the easiest thing would be to cover it. Maybe something [like this](https://youtu.be/NcasvhpBevM?t=813) if you’re down for a little carpentry (no need for lights etc, just a board with feet will do) or [like this](https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Portable+Office+Walls+Dividers&i=garden&rh=n%3A1063308%2Cp_36%3A8570764011&dc&ds=v1%3A%2B30gUQQlDBPDzcwXZcUL1x%2BjAgo4V4CDrviA1NiFkRo&qid=1688693540&rnid=8570763011&ref=sr_nr_p_36_1) if not.

    I say life’s too short to waste it doing cable management! Let that tangle roll…😂

    That’s not a fire hazard. Why would you think that’s a fire hazard?

    People are so bizarrely uptight about other’s cabling.
