I am not sure if this is a fair comment on the paddles or just my
particular circumstance. I like the Kx3 paddles; I can adjust them with
close enough spacing and they are smooth but when it comes to  the
positioning. I find that the paddles are to close to the desk and this is
exacerbated when I am using a wrist brace, which I do about 30 % of the
time. As near as I can figure it out; looking at my other keys, I need 1/2
of an inch clearance above the desk to match my natural finger positioning.
I have found that if I use a small 1/3 inch 'artists eraser' under the
front of the rig I can send much better. Peter pointer isn't dragging on
the desk and there is room for uneven surfaces.

Comments welcome.
