Yeah. We have that same situtation at my workplace.
I made this to be used in home, but actual reason to make it was to show idea to my boss.

Those doesn't seem to understand if i try to explain something.

Luckily they liked the idea an promised to deliver machined & cut parts so we can build our owns to be used in work too.

Also i got small bonus from the idea, so this was fun and also profitable project.
Good On you Tuomas for the small bonus and propagating one of your brilliant multifunctional, HMT ideas!! Well Deserved! Love the build over all and the idea of the extension for the vice was also well worthy of Praise and pre-thinking your seat brackets design...once again brilliant. Relieving stress and strain with those delicate and tedious task is a big time win in my book!
