Wrist Rest Recommendations
« on: Wed, 08 May 2019, 19:30:50 »
I'm looking to get a nice wrist rest for my new 60%, something that has some dark colored wood. Not very educated on wrist rests so I need some help.

"Not very educated on wrist rests"

I thought that from an ergonomics perspective, these are bad things. If you're using a wrist rest, you're also angling your hands up which is going to increase the risk of carpal tunnel.

I love big fat gel rests as a place to rest the hands while reading or thinking.

Unfortunately they always look shabby after a couple of years.

"We are on the precipice of signing an agreement to advance talks with Iran that preserves the good parts of former President Barack Obama’s Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) while amplifying its flaws.
Mr. Obama came to an agreement that did not involve America’s most precious treasure, the lives and limbs of our soldiers.  The 1.7 billion dollars of frozen Iranian assets released by Obama pales in comparison to the 300 billion being floated as a rebuilding fund.
So far, speculation that Iran will be free in the future to continue its nuclear program is the opposite of Trump’s stated goal for the war and in direct opposition to what Mr. Obama negotiated."

3M makes some nice gel ones.  They're covered in a pretty hard-wearing textured black vinyl.  I've had one in my office for years, and it still looks like new.  I don't know if they make one as narrow as a 60%, but it might work for both a keyboard and a mouse.  They make a 2' wide version that's made to be used with a full-size keyboard and a mouse.  That thing's huge.
