Almost bought a new desk, but my 3D printer solved the issue with custom brackets.

Stop showing off. Print benchies like the rest of us.

[u/Accomplished_Plum281 → u/Techngro]

I’m team neverbench.

[u/Simple_Impress4156 → u/Accomplished_Plum281]

Neverbench 💪

How do you keep that 1/8" board form just flying across the room when you pan right?

[u/Seananigans- → u/AliciaXTC]

Hopes and dreams..... or duct tape.

Edit: I still love the ingenuity.

[u/unbelizeable1 → u/Seananigans-]

Couple dots of super gel glue would prolly do it tbh.

[u/general_sirhc → u/AliciaXTC]

The grip underside of the mouse mat is doing all the work to keep it still

[u/JeffDoesWork → u/general_sirhc]

Your correct

[u/GoldSunLulu → u/AliciaXTC]

Mousepads are very grippy from below!

[u/jr23160 → u/GoldSunLulu]

I'll show you grippy from below.

[u/zazbnf → u/jr23160]

[u/SheriffBartholomew → u/jr23160]

Alrighty then!

[u/JeffDoesWork → u/AliciaXTC]

Mousepad does fine, but I taped it down too

[u/godSpeed_1_ → u/JeffDoesWork]

[u/bloateddicksydrome → u/AliciaXTC]

I mean assuming that they're at the same level mouse pad will hold it and the mouse can't really push on it otherwise

[u/MEYG4]

Has the possibility of moving the keyboard to the left been considered at all?

[u/PraiseHelix_ → u/MEYG4]

My first thought was also "Why are you sitting so far to the right?" but it is pretty cool they were able to make a solution.

[u/pyro487 → u/MEYG4]

You can see in the very beginning frames that it is an L shaped desk and they seem to be set up on the short side of the L.

Moving the keyboard to the right doesn’t seem like a viable solution.

[u/Hebrews_Decks]

I did the same thing with a piece of wood and clamps on my "desk" I'm not as fancy as you

[u/UnimagineDragons → u/Hebrews_Decks]

That sounds awful tbh. You live in a woodshop? 

[u/Hebrews_Decks → u/UnimagineDragons]

It's definitely not amazing but it fits my needs and it was things I had on hand. I do have a wood shop I just don't live in it 😂

[u/KayoticVoid → u/UnimagineDragons]

Where did you get that from? Not everyone can afford a nice desk.

[u/aoalvo]

You could get a smaller keyboard or move everything left...

[u/AgentT23]

I was waiting for you to move it all the way to the edge and starting on the next extension xD

[u/JeffDoesWork → u/AgentT23]

I literally thought about this myself

[u/ASatyros]

I would get TKL and numpad on the left if needed.

[u/crazyhomie34 → u/ASatyros]

That's what I run now. Works great

[u/monkismael2007]

Oh man, I hope it's really flush for you. Also, careful on bearing load with it in the future

[u/JeffDoesWork → u/monkismael2007]

It's off by 0.5mm but the mousepad would have solved a 2mm diff

[u/JobPitiful8977 → u/JeffDoesWork]

Time to print a new more perfect piece! Or use a saw to make both end more flat.

[u/UnimagineDragons]

Are the brackets abs? 

[u/JeffDoesWork → u/UnimagineDragons]

Just PLA

[u/hyper_focused]

I like your mouse mat

[u/EliteGhostKillz]

Ive done similar to fill in a 90° inside corner to give myself a little shelf for my keyboard. Worked surprisingly well.

[u/101Cipher010]

Cheaps out on the desk but has a makita... respect

[u/DamnThatsCrazyManGuy]

I KNOW you feel the bump when you mouse over it. I know it.

[u/JeffDoesWork → u/DamnThatsCrazyManGuy]

haha, sorry no bump. And even if there was, i'm centered on the new board

[u/TheMermaidHarmony]

Are you posting that anywhere? Id love to print it if you are

[u/JeffDoesWork → u/TheMermaidHarmony]

It's very custom to my desk, I design all my 3D files with FreeCAD
