Haha thank you! I love how it turned out. And it was just some quality time spent sifting through the mountain of LEGO with the kids.
I did put an angle on it. I replaced the large flat plates with ones that you can add bricks to the bottom. Then added a row of bricks to the bottom of the rear edge. Might work on a wrist rest next.

That’s what I was thinking. Do they only make those is 8x16? I feel like that was the biggest plate I could find that could mate bricks from under. I’ve also seen people put a slight angle by adding bricks and putting the board on an angle. I’m a little more afraid of that because I could see myself bending or cracking it.

Do you happen to know the part number? All I could come across was 8x16 for standard plates

I used five 8x16 plates for the bottom. It got the job done. With the original kit I got a good angle using different size rubber feet.

That’s exactly what I was considering doing. Now I need to buy 5 plates….

I couldn't find anywhere that sells the part new, so I just ordered some used ones from eBay. I didn't get them yet, and I hope the color isn't too yellowed.
