Okay here's a bizarre one: the AULA S10 ergonomic mouse (Amazon, Newegg, Newegg)

 

 

The shape reminds me of "The Claw" Ross mentioned once so maybe this is a design he would like? This also seems to hit most of his requirements except for being kind of glossily, but it does have a sort of smooth space age look to it. I'd almost be willing to get it for $30 but shipping is $20 or $64 with free shipping.

 

 

 

 

 

As ugly as this is I kind of like the placement of some of the buttons. Plus I like that thumbwheel. Out of all the ones in this thread this is the one I'm most interested in trying.

The OOMouse/OpenOfficeMouse/Warmouse Meta is probably the closest thing to Ross' dream mouse and was created way back in 2009 but like all mice of this type, it was short-lived and almost impossible to find now.

 

 

 

 

 

What the hell is that? Jesus H Christ that looks like a nightmare to use and I even have narrow fingers. I definitely disagree with Steve Jobs and think that a mouse should have as many buttons as possible but this ain't it chief.

@Ross Scott get some guy with a 3D printer to get a mold of your hand, the mouse you want to purchase will probably never ever exist so you have better odds of someone else making a custom shell for u, and then you can just, take the guts from another mouse and slap them togheter

 

Jeff Dunham, the ventriloquist guy, had a behind-the-scenes video where he was showing how he made his puppets, and in one of the videos he demonstrates this device that scans 3d objects; he used it to scan his hand to make the hand for his puppet(s)

It's called photoscanning, and you actually don't need a special device for it anymore, just a camera and some software.

this project looks promising (at least in concept)

I'm not sure I want to use Bumblebee's taint as a mouse.

I gotta say guys, I think I have the ultimate setup with my mouse buttons on my G600. I can do *everything* lickety split. Again, Ross was anticipating that he didn't want buttons being hit by accident or a keypad, and that does not happen unless *I* hit the wrong button when I'm going for something, and I strongly urge him to reconsider. I have 6 of these g600 mouses, one for each computer I have, and it's a DREAM being about to use hotkeys with my thumb. I can surf the internet, manage a website, edit documents for a long time without having to touch the keyboard; the keyboard has been moved to my thumb on the mouse. Here are my updated screenshots of my layout.

 

Again, I've been using this mouse for about 12ish years now, and it is the ultimate mouse for me. I'm looking into getting some other sort of device for my left hand where I can type or map hotkeys for a game to it (logitech already makes one of these), and then I really will never touch the keyboard-proper during entire coding or gaming sessions. To solve the typing issue I'm going to look into what stenographers use as shortcuts.

 

Oh, I'm also using all three profiles on the mouse. The second profile contains hotkeys for The Witcher 3 currently, and the third profile contains hotkeys for roguelites' dashing and 'use' commands.

 

Ross, put in the discipline, quit living in squalor with that plebeian mouse and join the G600 master race today!!

ha ha that's quite interesting. Just change with new one. There are ample of items are available on Amazon and you just can get them at one click only. I am also using my G600 since six years and that is best of anything I have to say that. So you can also try it once.
