Fellow redditor RoadToSurfdom made a custom wooden case with integrated wrist rest and storage compartment.

The custom case was made from 6mm birch plywood and is stained with countertop wood oil with black pigment.

I have had this idea for a while of building a case with integrated wrist rest with storage. I don't really have any great woodworking skills, so I decided to do a proof-of-concept/learning build using a keyboard that I had laying around, before going straight to a tick-all-the-boxes build. This is the result – RoadToSurfdom.
