do it yourself ideas or cheap solutions to hold a monitor over my head?

[dunkin donuts]

Guys. I once again went back to the drawing board and came up with this

-strip down bed to wooden board with 2 sheets (no mushy mattress again!)
-rolled up towel for cervical support
-used the chair to tie the laptop to the chair cushion with my leather belt. Made sure no risk of scratch or damage that way because laptop costs money
-wireless keyboard
-mouse

By next week I am expecting my unilateral ortholinear keyboard and I will have the ultimate ergonomically brilliant and overall low cost and responsible solution

Ahhh yessss offff course!!!!

Been only a few minutes but I already feel relief in my back. Removing the matress was a great idea, I can actually feel my shoulder blades position now against the wooden board. And for sure once I can get that split keyboard and angle each side of the keyboard 45 - 60 degrees up from the wooden board, as well as widen my arm position away from my body, it should dramatically improve my posture over the course of the day, and so hopefully contribute to relieving back pain over the longer term

Looks intricate bro.

Can you supinate while typing on this contraption?

Been thinking about the same. In theory you could fix it upside down to the  underside of some small table like objects you would put over each hand. Anything is possible

However it may be nicer typing experience to have gravity pulling your hands to the keys

I received from taiwan in the mail this funky keyboard. Very expensive and also import costs

Very bad experience,  I dont recommend it. Basically.guys who are using this are all going down insane rabbitholesof alternative keyboard layouts

shut up pamith

Hahahaha.

I want to ellaborate on why I consider alternative keyboard layouts as a no-go.

When you are working with other people, they will always use normal keyboard layouts, you need to be able to work very efficiently with the standardized keyboard layout.

When you go down the rabbit hole of alternative "superior" keyboard layouts you are basically destroying 20-30+ years of training and muscle memory. You will end up looking like a total noob when it really counts

I have a feeling that you are the only person who owns this type of keyboard.

Address your back pain however you can like with a posture brace.
