The damn bail stand is too  high !!!

++++++++++++++++++++++++
 
I've noticed it's a little on the high side for folks with  smaller  hands 
than I. Aside from that, the viewing angle is ideal, which can be a real  
hassle 
when its 'flat'.  I've taken a look at the Bail legs and the plastic  foot 
that holds them.  It appears that with a little tool work (not for  everyone, I 
agree) a notch could be formed on the "outside" of the plastic foot,  similar 
to that on the "inside" except at a lower angle. This would make the  bail 
height selectable depending on which direction the foot was installed. I  may 
try 
this out when I'm not real busy playing Ham.  The feet are common  part so 
I'm not afraid to try.
 
An alternative might be to purchase on of the commonly available wrist pads  
used by computer users to rest the wrist in front of the mouse or keyboard at 
a  higher angle.  The gel types are quite comfortable and come in many sizes  
and the viewing angle is unaffected this way.
