Are there mouse skates for using a mouse without a mousepad? (lemmy.ca)

I've had zero luck finding any info on this. Maybe my search skills are bad :/

What I'm looking for are mouse skates that create the feel of a mouse on a mouse pad. All the skates I'm seeing are for ultra low friction when used on a mouse pad. Basically, I want to get rid of the need for a mouse pad on my desk for aesthetic and practical reasons and am hoping that someone knows about a set of mouse skates that would facilitate this.

Seems you found a solution already. But my recommendation was going to be those little felt stickers they put on cabinets to keep them from banging shut. You can easily add or remove stickers to adjust resistance.

Ooooh, damn that's a good idea. I'm gonna look into that. Thanks for the suggestion!

For sure. They're super cheap at any hardware store, and you'll likely get way more than you need so you'll have extra to replace them as they wear out or just use them as intended around the house.

The table in my front room is slightly off balanced, I removed the short leg and put some of those pads in between the leg and the table and it's perfect now.
