Do any of you have an iPad in your shop and if so do you try to keep the dust off it. Yesterday I moved an older iPad from my office to my shop. I now need a stand and wonder about some sort of dust cover?

Peter, I bring mine into the shop all the time (streaming satellite radio!). I just stand it up in 'portrait' orientation with the home button and the lightning charger port down, or 'on the bottom' to keep dust out of that part of it.

I keep a spare iPad in the shop but I've never worried about the dust. If I used the one with a detachable keyboard I'd probably cover it to keep the dust out of the keys.

Almost embarrassed to show these photos. I wanted a dock for the extra iPad in the shop so I built this and at a recent auction I bought about 1200 covers . . . . . . So if anyone is interested in a iPad shop cover I seem to have a few extra! LOL

I have an older iPad sitting on my bench that I surf with when the cnc is plugging along. I never worried about or had any problems with dust.

Thanks Bruce I suppose it is overkill and I'm thinking i'll lose the plastic bag.
