Default creation station and mirage

Happy Valentines Day all!
not sure if this is where to put this question, but i was wondering if they can be used together or any other ideas for arm rests for mirage set up.
any ideas welcome, as of now i just lean on my torch marver if i need to. i work standing up for most things other than extreme detail, then my elbows on the table is uncomfortable.
thanks!

I use a Creation station with my Mirage. I did remove the 'wings' and just use the movable handles for arm rests. The clip on the back doesn't hold the torch well because of the thick base so I put a long screw through the hole in the front of the base down into the table top. It stays put.

I use custom made arm rests with my Mirage and work standing. I do use a tractor seat style stool a lot though but it is set for my bench height nso elbows are at same place both ways.
