I know this may sound a little wierd, but can any owners tell me how much clearance the brackets that fit under the desk/table need? I'm thinking of buying a wheel and need to know if it'll fit on to one of those desks with the pull-out keyboard tray underneath. **** Posted from RemarQ - http://www.remarq.com - Discussions Start Here (tm) ****

Well, after a quick look at mine, it appears that the wheel, as it was intended to be clamped, can accomodate desk/tabletops from about 1/2" thick to about 2". Taking a closer look, it really does not appear as there is a way to get is securely fastened to anything thicker than 2" or so. Hope this helps -- I'm sure others have come up against this issue, and might have some ideas to offer.....

I have a pull out keyboard tray, the tray itself is not in the way but I have to push the keyboard out of the way or pull it out if I want to do any typing. Norm (tm) ****
The clamping mechanism projects about 4 - 4 1/2" below the lower part of the clamping surface. In my case that wouldn't fit with my keyboard drawer but that would, of course, depend on your drawer's configuration.
