What is this, a SHELF for ANTS?<\/h2>\n
\"What<\/a>
\"\" What is this, a BOOKSHELF FOR ANTS!?<\/a>\"\"<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I was annoyed when I wanted to read websites while walking on a NordicTrack treadmill, and there was nowhere to set my laptop.<\/p>\n

The little strip of plastic they put on the console as a ledge wasn’t fit for books. Perhaps it would work for magazines, but I don’t have Super X-Ray Laser Vision to read small print while walking.<\/p>\n

I want a big IN YOUR FACE laptop screen I can zoom in on, something that DARES ME not to become completely absorbed in its large print articles and blog posts. And I want to be able to type, too.<\/p>\n

Designed Sheet Metal Version<\/h3>\n

So first I designed a sheet metal version, to have it bent up and painted.<\/p>\n

A cloth strap would thread through slots with some velcro-strip-on-a-roll glued to it for adjustability and fastening. And if that didn’t work, I put various holes in the plate to tie rope\u00a0through. \u00a0One way or another, this thing was gonna strap to a treadmill.<\/p>\n
