KX1 Minilog Comments

Dennis Payton
It works better for me to flip my KX1 up to access the mini-log instead of
flipping it sideways, because flipping it up gets the paddle away from my
writing hand, where I might accidentally engage it. So, when I cut out the
sheets, instead of following the pattern, I cut the corners out of the top,
and put the slots in the bottom. You actually can't tell they're not
supposed to be that way.



Also, I prefer a scratch sheet when I'm operating, so I found some 4"x 6"
Post-It notes, and cut the tops to 3-3/4"x 1". Then I stick them on the log.
It works pretty well, only needing to be moved once while filling out each
log sheet. The action of removing them from the pad makes them want to curl,
so I bend them the other way before cutting them down, and do several at a
time.



When I put more than two log sheets (business card material) on the rig, the
knurled screws stick below the feet, so I'm considering either finding some
screws with shorter heads, or buying a couple extras and grinding their
heads down. Actually though, two sheets has been plenty for me.
