Advice for trackball?
« on: August 17, 2007, 12:21:49 pm »
I need some woodworking advice in regards to the trackball.

What would you suggest is the best method of cutting the trackball hole?

Do you see any issues with me using a router to route the underside so I can cut out all but the 1/8th lip for the trackball?

There was a post on something similar recently in the main forum:

I mounted mine in an irregular way and used a 3" hole saw
plus my router to do it.
