Someone on Reddit suggested rolled up old socks as wrist rest. I think that's a pretty legit idea

Hacksaw that whore down to size and super glue the end cap onto it.

Get something made of leather, it's much kinder on the skin than any of the plastic or foam alternatives.

Turbulent labs makes good quality stuff.

i cleaned this yesterday and soldered cherry blue switch as win key before i figured out it was swiched off, by a key combination. Might resolder the rest now

I 100% did consider this exact idea. But the thing is. I love this wrist rest. Its one from a corsair K70 and I havent been able to find one that has the same size/shape like this that I completely comfortable with.

Ive tried a wooden 'gloriousgaming' one that was high quality but not at the right angle for my wrists.

Its gotta have that sloped angle.

It's looks fine.....

Totally not like we are trying to overcompensate for something else with our oversized keyboard wrist rest. Nope.

Not a bad idea, there. Eliminates the need to have a separate mouse wrist rest

Been gone a little bit. Trying out gat smoothies and oil kings lately on the X60 R. And experimenting with some JTK Griseann although the mods are so bad they didn't work out so Dolch is filling in there, waiting on a KKB WoB set.

Hoping to get in on the Caerdroia buy next month, could finally have a pair of TKLs to work with for the first time.

Vertex Pok3r on my third PC. Got it in that wooden frame as I got it used.

And using Finnish layout via Windows is pretty usable, though the ANSI layout feels weird since I've always been using ISO Nordic :laugh:
