Re: The Ultimate CAD Work(out)station… It's Not a Chair

I don't know if i can back this up quantitatively; but yes, i think it has. If nothing else, it drastically reduces spacing out and improves concentration. The mind doesn't wander so much. When i get used to it it may, but so far less wandering

I am charting it: mean 5 miles a day, mode 6 miles. I walk 2 mph on the treadmill and spend the rest of the day on the shop floor. No sitting.

The height needs adjustment and i want to get those squishy pads they used to give away at tech events. I should have picked one up then, but i thought they were dumb.

The keyboard is way to low, about 7 inches and the mouse about an inch. I have gained .4 lbs. Turns out it has got to be diet and exercise.

I am still playing with the mouse/keyboard height. Once i figure out what i want it to be and have the time and money to make a riser, i will ditch the sharp edged shop scrap and stack of misappropriated office paper. I would like the keyboard and mouse to be the same height and the keyboard needs to be centered in front of me lest i torque my back and right knee.

Great idea for a race track. I don't know if it will stand up to the sanitation realities of public transportation.

Re: Ask the Reader: Your Prediction. Will the OS As We Know It Go Away? {Poll}

The OS will journey long and hard into a land of ice and jagged lava rock. There it will hunt the wild beast and become a man. It will return to us one day mature, less needy, and less demanding....or not it could go either way.

This would definitely help keep ones CFD work flow laminar. BWHA HA! I would love to work in fluid dynamics especially if i had a tool like this. Now if someone could come up with a similar style program for Corrosion Engineering (another field that i find interesting) that would be spectacular spectacular.

i heart 3D sketches for controlling assy's especially when one has to put many of the same thing different sizes in an upper assy. i also heart Rich Hall's comment on peas...he's pretty cool.
