By far the most difficult part of
+- zeroth solution using hand-made cardboard optomechanical discs
+
+ - bad idea
+
- the first solution using only small LEGO cogwheels
+
+ - easier to construct, still too easily hopping over
+
- the second solution using non-LEGO cogwheels
+
+ - ???
+
- so far final solution using mouse's own grid wheel
and LEGO tires
+ - easy to construct, reliable
+
+ - best part = 132-old, but the shaped tyres will also do
+
An example custom controller for a particular user interface

Pros:
-- cheapness,
+- cheap
- easy to build
- reusable parts
-- fun
- USB -> can attach as many as we want, simple to use
programmatically e.g. in Linux
+- taps to several computer scientists' hidden background in LEGO building.
+- fun
Cons:
-- shape edged, unconformtable
+- shape edged, uncomfortable
+
- several options for design
+
- slopes + inverse slopes octagon
+
- rounded bricks
+
- wedges
+
- more ergonomic handles could be made by covering
LEGO handles with modelling "pasta" / paste / something
- weak (legos may break apart)
+
- requires careful construction
+
+ - see tips section
+
- gluing parts
+- mechanical looseness
+
+ - some inevitable
+ - humans used to some
+
+ - can be alleviated to a great degree by careful construction
+
+ - see tips

- requires calibration
-
-Some solutions for cons:
+- having to explain to budget counters purchases of LEGO sets with
+ interesting names (or bricklink purchases)
