All that just to keep something light from walking around on your desk? They've had that problem for years on sailboats, yachts, etc. Get yourself some of this stuff and cut it so a shape that just contains the feet on the K3 ( or ...). Google no slip tape anti slip tape no slip fabric anti slip fabric for a ton of different kinds. There are quite some number of different KINDS of no slip materials. I use some of the skinny waffle like fabric under my keyboard and trackball. They don't weigh anything at all and they never budge. Ditto the keyer paddle that I really bang on and would slide without the fabric. Sliding is a non-issue. Weight just isn't needed any more. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
