Adding/Including Memories
I lost my dad last year (2023) and have been finding ways to include keepsakes/memories in my workstation. I've dabbled here and there with doing small woodworking projects and attempted a wrist rest from a piece of oak I picked up with him from my great uncles wood shop. I milled it to fit a 60% keyboard as I hadn't decided what keyboard I would be using it on and thought that's where most of my wrist would be in contact even typing on a full keyboard. I gave it a torched/burn appearance as I really was lost in what to do. I found an old shell casing from going hunting with my dad in my hunting pack and decided to imbed it into the end of the wrist rest so it would just have a little difference and a small story behind it as well. I have other things around my workstation from family and friends, but it just feels a little more special having worked on it and adding something small that has a memory for me to it. (Purple was my grandmothers favorite color and I have kinda now...

This was my first purchase from both Arozzi and massdrop, but it definitely won't be my last from either of them.
Regarding the instructions, I screwed the base on. Then I noticed it was orientated backwards to the diagram in the instructions. Plus the little arms that control height were block bolts for the chair arms. So I removed the base and bolted it in reverse. When I got the chair done, I was amazed how far forward it would lean. I got it right the third time.
So I agree, the instructions could be clearer. I also agree that it's a crazy good deal all things considered.
