Ah, my bad. I owned the OG "Trackman Marble" (same name, but that thumb-ball form factor and in the beige era : https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-TrackMan-Marble-Wheel-Mac/dp/B00004L8IG )

​

I highly agree with your sentiment that the centered ball type/form factor was weird and unusable. But I do know someone who swears by it. Really weird.

​

I thought the new one was named the Trackman Marble too. But yes, I also owned that gray/red model (Trackman Wheel). And the wireless black/blue M570 that followed it.

​

Sadly, their microswitch quality has gone downhill in recent years. I would've moved on to the MX Ergo, but the prices are just insane and the microswitches are still prone to failure. I've since switched to gaming mice and am really happy with their crazy-precise sensors. I miss having a good thumb trackball though.

​

I also got an Elecom thumb trackball. It's like the Trackman Wheel, but with a few extra buttons, a better sensor and a fancier mousewheel. Feels alright to use. Would recommend if you're really sticking to that form factor. I don't know if I would've enjoyed it long-term but I eventually just gave mine to my sister's husband to use when his Trackman Wheel broke. He's been happily using it for a year.

I'd recommend Creative Aurvana Live, the first version. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000ZJZ7OA?pf_rd_p=c2945051-950f-485c-b4df-15aac5223b10&pf_rd_r=6JT9VV5SN9KE8RMCSKNW

Extremely good bang for the buck, and probably the best you can get under $150 or so. Very easy to drive, don't need an amp, and sound great from anything I've plugged them into so far.

Keyboard: WASD 61 Keys with custom cap colors (built on their site)

Headphones: Sennheiser HD 598 SR with open backs.

Pen: Baoer 388 with a medium nib

I want to buy a nicer pen but for right now this one (with Noodler's black ink) works perfectly. I use numbers a lot at work, so I plan on making a separate number pad soon, and I also am probably going to purchase a trackball to place between the keyboard and number pad. The headphones I bought on Prime Day for half their normal price (at the time).

I must apologize. I got it wrong. On the clip it says "Vortex", not "Vector". I got it at a store in San Francisco. I think it was Midori? Anyway it was an impulse buy of a fairly cheap pen, but it writes very nicely and it looks even better when inked up with green ink.

Keyboard: Huo Ji Z-77

Headphones: Sony MDR-7506 (been rocking these almost daily for ~7 years and just recently had to replace the original pair, my favorite headphones of all time)

Pen: Lamy Fine Tip Safari in Charcoal

You might want to consider changing those pads on the m40x. Went from stock to Brainwavz on my m30x (same pads) and the difference in comfort and sound is substantial.

u/millipz · 9 pointsr/mechanicalheadpens

Apart from the keycaps, this is a pretty budget setup, but I like it!

It's an Opinel No. 8 folding knife. Just excellent for everyday use, a lot of history behind their knives too.

u/basics · 2 pointsr/mechanicalheadpens

I experienced the exact same thing.

The one I use I got off amazon... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00862522A/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Although that one specifically doesn't seem to be in stock. There are several similar ones listed. I paid about ~$25 for it, so I would imagine you can find something similar.

It makes a huge difference for me.... I can wear them for hours at a time and not even notice I have them on.

Looks like a cutting mat. Think this is it!

u/9999years · 1 pointr/mechanicalheadpens

Headphones: Audio Technica ATH-M50x — Nothing too special. Wish I knew about open-backed headphones back when I bought them.

Keyboard: Pok3r white w/ Cherry MX Browns with thick blank keycaps by GeekKeys — Really enjoying this, and a lot quiter than my previous keyboard.

Pen: Lamy Safari Clear Demonstrator with fine nib — Again, nothing too special. Gonna replace it with a Namiki Falcon at some point.

Watch: Void V01 MkI, sadly no longer available.

i thought that was expensive too, then i found this

u/flak_1 · 1 pointr/mechanicalheadpens

Neither. It's actually a cheap Noodler's pen. I got it because I wanted to try out a flex-nib pen.

u/YUDoDisReddit · 2 pointsr/mechanicalheadpens

Sorry for the crappy 4k quality, shot with a Galaxy S5 and I forgot to resize

Equipment: Cooler Master Rapid (Browns), Sennheiser HD 558, Pilot Metropolitan

It's a cutting mat. Mine is this one:
https://www.amazon.com/OLFA-Double-Sided-Self-Healing-Rotary-Mat/dp/B0006SDOFO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1498482827&sr=8-1&keywords=olfa+cutting+mat

Need it for model making. 24x36 is a little excessive even for me but running out of room on a long cut sucks. You can get them at most art stores or fabric stores in various sizes
