Ditto. It might make sense to build a door desk if you happen to have a suitable door in need of disposal.
My girlfriend made a decent workstation out of a 3/4" 4x8 melamine panel ($30), some cheap Ikea Kallax-like shelf units for legs ($20/ea), white corner trim ($1.75/ft) to make the edges nice, and whatever the screws and nails cost. Probably $120 all-in.
