No mousepad/deskmat under 900mm width?
« on: Sat, 08 December 2018, 06:15:30 »
My desk has a keyboard drawer / tray which is 750mm wide (29 inches)
I want to place a mousepad on it which covers the whole surface, but I can't find a gaming mousepad/deskmat that is below 890-900mm(36 inches) wide.
Why do they make these extended mousepads only in 900mm width? I need 750mm width.
Or am I just too stupid to find the correct product?

The generic ones on ebay come in lengths including 600, 700 and 800mm.  In a quick search I came across this offering.  You can probably find a better price if you search a bit more though.

Is there a reason not to buy a larger one and cut it to an exact fit for your drawer?
 
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

That's the spirit. Just a little diy.

I ran into this issue recently getting a mousepad for the keyboard tray in my office. I'm not sure if its available anywhere at the moment, but the RAMA Canvas is 600mm x 250mm which fit my tray just about perfectly.
