A sleeper of a paddle is the Whiterook MK-44 from electronicsusa.com.
I hesitate to call it a cheap paddle, as that tends to refer to an
inferior product. It is a robust, affordable, lightweight paddle that
will continue to work even after you throw it at a wall. For a few

I have made 2 keys. The simple one used a SPDT spring switch
which might have come from some old telephone equipment. I added
a finger pad cut from an old credit card and bolted it to the

I own two Te-Ne-Kes. I use them in the field, mostly, though I have one of
them screwed to a wooden base, weighted with stick-on iron tire balance
weights. They work like a charm.

I love the paper clamp idea!
I am also a big fan of the PortaPaddle and PortaPaddle II, using it with

There is a new manufacturer advertising in Sprat magazine. Model UMPP-1 is
advertised bench model and there are others $60 to US. Not quite "cheap" but
very small and good for travelling.

You could use your keyboard with N1MM. Won't cost you anything.

There are several cheapies on eBay for about $35. You'd probably need

I am currently "sheltering in place" far from home and would like to set
