John and All,
Proper ESD safety practices dictate not having anything made of plastic
within a foot of your ESD safe workstation where you are assembling or
working inside your K3, or any other equipment that contains ESD sensitive
devices!
I just confirmed that this precaution is not addressed in the front of
the K3 Assembly manual in the section entitled "Preventing Electrostatic
Discharge Damage".

P.S. Sorry to continue to beat a very dead horse, but I will as long as
others continue to post similar suggestions which violate proper/accepted
handling practices for ESD sensitive devices.
