Great hack, thanks!

Nephasth:
Well, the optical mouse with cylinder works. I tested it with an unmolested mouse and a drill. I'll try setting up a solid fixture for demonstration purposes.

Nephasth:
I don't see the need for another mouse hack thread, so I thought I'd put this in with this one. Not trying to thread jack, and staying somewhat on topic. Louis, if you want me to remove this I have no problem doing so.

Built a "prototype" for the optical mouse spinner. Pretty straight forward. Some small planks of wood, genuine arcade cabinet brackets, a long bolt, nuts, washers, small plastic cup, and an optical mouse with the top cover removed.



Here you can see the clearance between the plastic cup and the mouse.
