[IC] Cradle Wrist Rest

Cradle Wrist Rest





Overview

This is the initial interest check for Cradle, a wrist rest that provides gentle support within a minimalist form. This post is intended to gauge community interest and record feedback early in the production process.

Cradle is a response to wrist rests that focus on aesthetics at the expense of ergonomics. The neoprene rubber mat and plastic casing collaborate to cushion your wrists while distributing their weight, allowing for extended working sessions without discomfort. Its rubber feet keep the rest properly positioned during use as well.

Specifications

Angle: 6.5 Degrees
Lower Height: 14 mm
Weight: 165 g
Materials: ABS & Neoprene
Estimated Price: $25 USD
Manufacturer: TBD
Manufacturing Method: Injection Molded or SLA Printed (scale dependent)



Status

The design is stable and in-house prototyping has been completed. My goal is to deliver units late Q2 or early Q3 of 2023, and I’m currently vetting vendors to meet these timelines. Barring major surprises from this IC, I plan to launch the Group Buy within the next two weeks. I will update this post with new information throughout the process.

Thank you for your time.

"we all know"? This is news to me.
One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen, Fourteen, Fifteen, Sixteen, Seventeen, Eighteen, Nineteen, Twenty... Yeah that seems about right.

Also how is $25 "not cheap" for a wrist rest? That seems pretty reasonable to me.
