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?
 
"Starting in 2011, the deficits again started to shrink. During Obama’s term  the deficit was reduced by $900 Billion  before finally in 2015 the GOP managed to wrangle a “reconciliation” bill out of Obama where he again cut corporate taxes, as well as made permanent some of George W. Bush’s original tax cuts. This is the year everything reversed. Before this, under Clinton, Bush and Obama the deficit in almost every year was gradually decreasing. The balance we had of taxes and the economy was bringing the deficit down, the money coming in was slowly catching up with the money going out until 2015. Trump’s subsequent tax cut has continued the new trend even after the rest of Bush’s cuts have since expired. Obama had an average GDP of 2.3%, with 11.6 million jobs created and unemployment peaking at 10% in 2009, then falling to 4.3% in 2016. If we had continued on that downward deficit track, we would have again reached balance and another surplus in 2017-2018.

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.
