My Desk Setup Was Ruining My PC (and how i solved it)

Published at : 23 Dec 2025

In this video, we delve into an unexpected journey through the world of static electricity, 3D printing, and innovative problem-solving. Join me as I share my experience with a glass chair mat and a Kingsmith walking pad, which led to a shocking revelation about static buildup and its effects on my electronics. Watch as I tackle this issue by designing a unique wrist rest using conductive PLA filament, and witness the evolution of my designs through multiple iterations. From understanding user needs to creating efficient solutions, this story is packed with insights on DIY projects, 3D printing materials, and the importance of grounding. If you're interested in over-engineered solutions to everyday problems, this video is for you! Don't forget to like, subscribe, and explore the 3D printing files available on my Maker World page.
