shelf about 50 - 52 inches tall total (with slots for cords to drop into) The station would hold the main 4 laptops I work with daily

We'll see how that works and go from there I guess

When I built mine, I finalized the height with the surface of the desk midway between my belly button and my nipples. This allows for my arm to rest perfectly on the desk and keep my wrist level when using the mouse. I occasionally put a pad under my elbow.

I highly recommend building into a corner. This way, you have open space in front of you, and an arm rest on your mouse side. I used 2 solid core doors, finished and plexiglassed on the surface -- there's only 2 main supports, with a rim attached the to the wall studs to hold up the edges.
