Maybe not all of us are going after that Mad Max vibe or (in my case) our wives won't let us?
BTW, wood would work fine but I don't know many people that have 10ga metal laying around that happens to be the exact size needed. Any larger metal pieces of metal would require something more substantial than tinsnips to trim and any smaller pieces of metal would be useless. Thinner metal aka metal that could be trimmed by non-metal working folk would be useless for such a task unless you sandwiched multiple together.
So yeah....$10, big whoop.

i have something similar holding up a triple mount with 3 27" monitors on a glass topped desk. 2 years in no issues.
Are the mount arms piston-style? Do you move them around much? Or are they mostly stationary?

I have a pretty thin wooden desk from Ikea, 1/2" thick, been using a 2"x4" wooden beam underneath a dual monitor mount for years now. I keep my monitors stationary most of the time but they are on hydraulic piston type arms and I do move them around once in a while to adjust them and recently changed a cable out without any issues. Blocks would work too but if you can get something a bit longer, say 6-12 inches in length it would help to distribute the weight a bit more evenly.
Hope that helps, cheers!

That is very helpful! I may actually try that. Since this is so cheap I'm going to get one and maybe use it for the surface top for the aesthetics, but also use your suggested method and get a longer block for underneath the table.
I'm also using an Ikea table (Linmon) and I think it's mostly just particleboard and I'm concerned about bowing over time.

Don't use wood blocks
