In Reply to: Foot pedal keeps inching away from me - Cyberland MT

Never had a problem in the office.  Chair/desk/keyboard was perfect height and foot pedal did not move very much on the carpet.  When I got home, I needed a board under the foot pedal but the pedal moved on the board.  I received a mail order catalog that had a nonskid pad designed for sewing machine foot pedals.  It is nonskid rubber on one side and carpet on the other and comes with velcro pads.  It was cheap.  If you ever see one get it, works great.
