Product description:

Ergonomic fleeting curve design
Available in:

Let me know if you’re interested! We’d like to do a group buy if there’s enough interest.
More Info:
-Hawaiian Koa is an ultra rare wood. Hard to find, and thus very expensive.
-Pricing will likely be in the $80-100 range depending on size. $60 for the 60% size
-Options for Hawaiian designs to be burned or etched into the wood
-For more $ we could also use “Curly Koa” where grain looks wavy and ripply. Google Image that.
-We’ve tried felt and foam for the bottom side. I love the slidey-ness of felt bc of the way I move things around my desk during the work day but most will probably want foam/rubber or standard feet bump-ons.
UPDATE 1/22/2017:

Recently I built a minivan and a Red Scarf II ver. c
The wrist rest is perfect height for the RS2 and feels great. A co-worker and I have been using them for months at work now. I think our next plan for the rests is to make a site if anyone wants to buy using swipe or another alternative.
Let me know if anyone is interested and we’ll make it happen.
UPDATE 4/13/2017:
We have received enough confirmed interest that we are going to do a limited run of the 60% size for just $60 + shipping!
Before we move to group buy I’m hoping for a few more people to tell us that they are interested, and from there we will figure out a timeline.
We are setting up Wave for payment processing.
