| 313209 | 2005-01-12 05:16:00 | My Steelpad (gaming mousepad) has now completely shredded the teflon feet it came with so I need to get some more mouse feet for my MX-510. However, at $8 for a few centimeters of "Mouse Skatez" from langear, I've decided to just buy a roll of teflon tape for my mouse. Where in Christchurch could I buy a roll of teflon tape from? Preferably an offline store so I can go in and pick some up tomorrow. Thanks. | Zygar (29) | ||

| 313214 | 2005-01-14 05:12:00 | Search still works. But doesn't supply the answer you want. To the best of my knowledge this is still not a "consumer item" pressf1.pcworld.co.nz |

| 313215 | 2005-01-14 07:11:00 | I've managed to find a place that will sell me teflon tape- cheap too! Ludowici Plastics. (http://www.ludoplas.com/) Apparently it's around $8 a metre for 50mm wide tape at the thickness I want it. I wonder how it compares with the likes of Everglide "Mouse Skatez" or the padsurfers that came with my mousepads. (I'm pretty sure it's exactly the same as the stuff which came with my Icemat, but the stuff that came with my steelpad is strange stuff which you can't get anywhere else.) I'm also considering buying a giant sheet of teflon to use as a mousepad for my other computer. (Yes, I like mousepads.) |

| 313216 | 2005-01-14 08:11:00 | Dont forget PTFE (Teflon tm) doesn't stick unless specially treated in some way :yuck: | Terry Porritt (14) | ||
| 313217 | 2005-01-14 18:25:00 | It is "Glass Filled Self Adhesive PTFE" according to the guy I emailed there. And apparently it's sufficient for my needs. | Zygar (29) | ||
