  Man learns toolsJul 20, 2011 7:16 AM PDT | url
 
Added 1 new A* page:Phew well the whole standing desk thing seems to be getting better as I gradually get a handle on how to survive and work on my feet. Still working on the perfect desk setup, too; I even got some tools, have been ransacking the piles of old lumber in the basement, and my neighbors must be wondering what I'm up to as they enjoy the internal sounds of sawing, hammering, and sanding at all hours of the day and night. Whee! Two important things I've learned so far: make sure you get a level spot of floor--this is a challenge in this hundred-year-old-house--and make sure you get your working surface at the correct elbow height. Oh, and make sure your elbows are allowed to hang loose down by your side, not pushed back or pulled forward.
 
Obvious things, I know, I know. Anyway I seem to have survived another day of it, so the journey continues tomorrow! And hopefully soon I'll run out of things to spend all day sawing and hammering, and can get back to slightly more interesting news articles. :P
