(This mat will prevent most bugs and other keys from sliding around on most desks. It's designed to fit a Vibroplex Bug, but will fit many other bugs and keys. I'm very happy to share another simple solution to a common issue :).

Need replacement Knobs / Paddles for your Bug, or just want to add your own style? These 3D Printed parts might be just what you were looking for. Enjoy! I'm a huge fan of Vibroplex, Bunnell, McElroy, and other manufacturers of telegraph / ham radio keys and bugs. CW / Morse Code is my favorite pastime. I love to operate bugs, but I prefer to QRS down to around 18 wpm and relax into a nice ragchew and I'm active in SKCC. I've experimented with many combinations of weights, stair gauges, and other solutions, and I found that extending the pendulum gives me very consistent results with a nice smooth operation of the key and a great feel. 73 and hope to hear everyone on the air!
