This standing desk balance board adds subtle movement and active engagement while you work. It uses a 13” x 20” x 3/4” plywood deck paired with a 3D printed central pivot and reinforced corner brackets for durability. The top surface is covered with skateboard-style grip tape for secure footing.
Designed for home offices, workshops, or anti-fatigue setups, this board promotes light balance training and core activation throughout the day.

Print Notes (Important)
Infill percentage directly affects weight capacity.
- Increase infill for higher weight support.
- Lower infill reduces strength but saves material.
- Wall count and top/bottom layers also impact durability.
- Adjust settings based on intended user weight.
- Adaptive layers is enabled for a smoother dome surface.
- I used PETG with good results so far!
(Choose your own printer settings based on material and strength goals.)
