Would you use a foot activated mouse button?

This would work along with a mouse. What if this was easily integrated into CAD would you buy one, for say $40. I think I would get one.

And, I would get one, but, wouldn't pay more than the price of a decent mouse.

Is there one out there, or are you thinking of making one?

[GreyHippo]

I was thinking of making one but I did a google search and found a few floor switches that hook up through USB but they were over $100.

I just did another search and found one for $35

Good to see they aren't all so expensive, thanks for the link.

I'm a foot-tapper/knee-bouncer...nervous habit or something. I'd probably end up crashing the computer 100 times a day.

i dunno. im not very cordinated at times. seems like more effort than just *clicking* the mouse button

Could just rig up a gas pedal from a racing wheel?
