Do you use a wrist rest? (feddit.org)

I recently got a Dierya 65% keyboard, and think it is rather thick.

Is this normal for a mechanical keyboard? Or is the Dierya exceptional high? Do you use a wrist rest? If so, is there anything special to look out for? Or will any wrist rest do?

I agree very much with your suggestion. Just pick up some piece of wood and go for it. Nothing to loose, just pay attention and don't do anything with power tools where you don't feel save.

Only on the sandpaper I would disagree - sure you can go to 1200, but spare yourself the time. 320 is more than enough in most cases.

Likely true, there are use cases, this is probably not one. Still, I like to go to 600 if varnishing.
