Question Deskmat size question

[axlrose]

I am looking for my first mat that is big enough for my keyboard and mouse. What size should I be looking for? I have my desktop in a few different locations throughout the year, so measuring the location itself isn't really useful.

Thanks!

I use this one:

ROG Sheath | Mice & Mouse Pads | ROG United States

ROG Sheath is an ultra-large cloth mat optimized for all gaming mice and sensors. It gives you precise control, and ultra-smooth and quiet mouse tracking.

Is that 16" x 36"?

Is that about the right size for a regular sized keyboard and mouse?

Its way bigger than that. A full-size keyboard is typically around 17 to 18 inches wide. Add 12 inches for a mouse on one side, or both sides.

So you would suggest about 30" wide?

I'm currently looking at something that is 12 x 22 or 15.5 x 31.

I love how you elided units. Don't ever change.

Or do, and instead of a 3D printer have a bunch of chains under the mousemat that are shot through pilots in rafters, then grab your skin away from arteries with hooks for that Obsolete Human Suspensions / Cenobite thing.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I like a full size mat that covers most of the desk.
Mine is 24" x 48"
