I have trouble using a joystick on my lap so I put it on a table.
What do you use as joystick feet and why?

I have a mass produced Saulabi SPS-1000 and the feet where not equal so the base kept wobbling. I wanted to get conventional rubber feet that are available at an hardware store but misused a mouse pad instead.

I used a "SteelSeries SteelPad QcK mini" while their smallest mouse pad it has a big enough surface to almost fit the whole bottom. I choose this one because of the traction. (Does anybody know a mouse pad that slides less then this one?) It is sticked to it with double sided tape.

What I do for mine, is put a sheet of sticky-bottomed foam rubber on the bottom. that way, the foam will work with the surface more, and you don't have to worry about feet breaking off.

I use a piece of grippy shelf liner I got from walmart ....... it works pretty well for me.

I have got a lot of those in different styles. But this time I wanted to do something different and cover the (almost) whole bottom. With separate feet it can get annoying if a few of them hangs over the table.
