Fast, easy and cheap wrist rest

I have just started a new degree in computers, not a university, but is something. I have to spend hours and hours in front of a screen and I don't have a proper desk to stay confortable with my keyboard. I don't have money, I'm spanish and the crysis is hitting us very hard.

So, I've just build this wrist rest, is cheap about 1€/$ (recycled materials) is easy to do, and you'll finis it in less than 5 minutes. Here we go!

Step 1 Materials

You will need:

A pair of old socks, doesn't mind if they are ripped. Mine are made of wool, extra warm.
Duct tape
Rice
Thread and needle

Great idea! Way to take something you have already and turn it into something else that's useful.

wow! The first instructable i have made, and the first person to comment is scoochmaroo!!

Thanks for the comment, is a must have, when you have to type a lot, all your joits suffer a lot of stress, and could get worse if you don't make anything to correct that. I have the new computer two weeks ago, and my elbow is start complaining and I say, no way.

BTW I really love your instructables! there are really good recipes on it, i'm tired of eating always teh same but with the crysis we only can effort 10€ a day, taht's practically nothing for 4 people. Wish things get better and SURE i'll make one of your recipes, i'm between the ice cream and the beef jerky, this one i want to taste it at least, once in my life, in Spain we don't make this.
