Standing Desk
Aug 9th, 2010 by john
I built a couple shelves so I can stand up and work. It's supposed to be better for you than sitting on your butt all day.
I just used random scrap wood so looks aren't that great.
Some early observations:
- I need to angle the keyboard so the back is lower than the front. The flat angle is hard on the wrists. I actually have a set of sliding keyboard rails from my dad that I was thinking of inserting on the monitor stand. That way I just have 1 shelf and a slide out keyboard tray.
- The monitors might be too high.
- I wonder if I'll need to wear shoes more often now. Standing around in flat feet all day could get sore.
- A bar rail to step up on would be nice.
- The cats like laying under the shelf
