I'm sure it was a lot more fun to make the mouse pad than to "just go out and buy one". That's what instuctables is all about, making things, having fun doing it and sharing it with others.

Very interesting idea. I have never heard of this before. Out of the box thinking, or would this be considered using the box thinking? Either way cool idea.
