Yeah - don't use em. Since I had developed tendinitis in both elbows from microtomy, EHS ergonomics people at a former employer decided to invent some. They covered them with some fake vinyl material, and the very first day I tried using them, my elbow slipped on the shiny vinyl and I cut off the tip of my finger on the blade. I have since learned that resting your forearms on the sharp edge of the bench caused my tendinitis. Since I quit that bad habit, I haven't had a recurrence in 15 years - nor have I cut myself.
