Yep, kinda hard to post pics of my home office after that :lol:

But I finished building my standing workstation today, so here's some pics. Taking it for a test-run before I clean up all the wires and fit it properly into the office which is kinda messy right now. It's minimalist and looks a bit cagey; hope I don't think I'm in a UFC ring and elbow myself in the head.

Anyway, so far so good. Feet are a bit sore, but my research tells me they adjust. And it makes me walk around more and take breaks. But most importantly, take that disc bulges and chronic back pain!

You can get something like this - no more sore feet. Not the exact one I have, but similar. Definitely worth having, in my opinion.

Love that keyboard.

Thanks Sorus, that's an excellent suggestion.

If you don't mind me asking, what's the name of the one you have, just so I can compare etc?

The unit hasn't been cat-tested yet, no Min-like seal of approval, just some scent inspections. But I imagine it won't take long until they're lying on the bottom or, in the case of my more mobile cat, jumping on the top :D

I couldn't find the exact one I have - not sure if they even still make it. I got it at a hardware store several years ago and it has long since lost any identifying markings it may have had. I think it's a tad smaller than the one I linked from Amazon, but otherwise very similar.

I'm not sure if that's a joke or not, so I'll answer anyway!
It's the actor Payman Maadi from the Iranian film 'A Separation'.
