How to install the Ergotron arm on your desk for Wacom Cintiq 22

Today, I am super excited as one of my dream has been realized. As a user of the Wacom Cintiq 22HD, I did myself a little present: The Ergotron arm! If you are also a Wacom Cintiq user, I think you are gonna love it! 

What is Ergotron about?

• • The Ergotron is an LCD monitor arm that suspends and supports your Wacom tablet in any position.
  • I can draw on it putting the tablet on my lap or even drawing standing up!
  • Despite the weight, you will be able to manipulate it very easily!
  • Most important, it totally frees my sketching space! I just need to put it in a vertical position like any second screen.

My sketching desk is a tiny Ikea table where my Wacom Cintiq 22″ occupies 3/4 of its surface. There are no much space left for drawing on paper.

The Wacom 22″ is so huge I even decided to put it back to the cupboard and use the smaller tablet Cintiq 13HD. : /

With my friend Adrien Wira who is a designer at Adidas, we drool for years at the idea of getting an Ergotron arm.

We thought we might need a strong table to support a suspended Cintiq of several kgs, so we didn’t dare to order one.

But I was sad looking at my Cintiq sleeping in its box, so I decided to finally make a try with the Ergotron arm! I searched on Amazon and order one.

Let’s unpack the box together!

That’s it!! I am so happy to get one. I will continue preparing free and quality content for you guys on the blog! 🙂

Today, I can tell it’s the perfect set up for any Cintiq user. If you also decide to get one, let me know and send me a picture of your desk configuration, it will be fun! :).
