Bill of Materials
Description
Remix of the Ultralight wireless mouse. Thanks Vsin for original model using AAA battery and smooth triggers. Thanks Jarie for XL size. and Thanks TheSockCollector for patterning concept.
I found these adjustments to the original design hits the sweet spot between weight and functionality. Not too slim, not too heavy; minimal yet functional.
This is so good now that this became my go to mouse for 3D modeling.
here are the ideas and changes in this remix.
1. Increased overall size to fit bigger hands.
2. Adopted an ergonomic shape in contact areas to reduce hot spot.
3. Use patterning to mimic a grip similar to that of a grip tape.
4. Raised and widened triggers for more flexible finger position, implemented a feather-like design pattern.
5. Moved battery location to the back to improve weight balance in compensate of the small size.
6. Added USB hitch and wire clip.
7. Added side and rear reinforcement to increase stiffness of overall body.
8. Implemented baseplate weight reduction which resulted in -1 gram despite of having a larger footprint.
**the taller trigger should be on the index finger
