I build my K1 and K2 with accessories using a wooden table as workbench.
I take into account not to use clothes that are known to produce static.
I also has a grounded point that I touch now and then to be sure.
All projects went together without any builderrors or static zapps.
A wristwrap and antistatic mat would be nice , but knowing about the problem
and use some common sence ,
you can do without it unless you live in very dry enviroment.

Dear K2 Owners,
I have just completed the control board on the K2, only problem is that I
didn't wear a wrist strap when I installed the chips on the board. I work
in
a fairly high humidity environment but my floor is carpeted, does anyone
think I will have problems when I do my test? I will now being using a
static guard mat and a wrist strap from here on out!
Thanks,
Phil
