View Full Version : I stealthed my mouse...
hi, I steathed my optical mouse by placing it upside down into the keyboard tray flush with the tray,
I then placed a piece of etched acrylic on top, with the pad I choose it just moves around like normal to activate left and right functions I simply push on the side I want.
I went and reversed the mouse buttons through windows mouse settings.
the top pad can be any shape, I just used this for testing...
so the mouse stays still and the pad moves for a change
and it's fully functional
no wires, no mouse. here's a pic

I personally wouldn't do it for my heavy gaming, but that is a really excellent mod. How'd you come up with it?
thats really weird and interesting at the same time!

No center scroll though... :(
Nice modding, but it seems like it would make normal computing a pain :/

origional but highly impractical
i like it, it looks really nice
whats that a picture off, when the red light, lights it up it looks kinda like a f-1 race car
and like the incredible hulk

Kinda cool. Very innovative though.
yeah it's more a visual mod however it does work rather well, and yes it is a etching of a couple of old cars out side a diner.
just wanted to do something different!
i dont see how to make the cursor move? you put the pad on top of the mouse and move it to make the cursor move or does it come out or what
Very nice! What's the usability like?
