The damn bail stand is too high !!!
++++++++++++++++++++++++
I've noticed it's a little on the high side for folks with smaller hands
than I. Aside from that, the viewing angle is ideal, which can be a real hassle
when its 'flat'. I've taken a look at the Bail legs and the plastic foot
that holds them. It appears that with a little tool work (not for everyone, I
agree) a notch could be formed on the "outside" of the plastic foot, similar
to that on the "inside" except at a lower angle. This would make the bail
height selectable depending on which direction the foot was installed. I may try
this out when I'm not real busy playing Ham. The feet are common part so
I'm not afraid to try.
An alternative might be to purchase on of the commonly available wrist pads
used by computer users to rest the wrist in front of the mouse or keyboard at
a higher angle. The gel types are quite comfortable and come in many sizes
and the viewing angle is unaffected this way.
