I know I could by the standard rather large pots with DSPT but I want
to put
this thing inside a mouse (computer mouse that is) .

Get one out of a scrap radio is the literal answer.

Tell us about the mouse project !

It's for a small project to get students (those interested in hardware) to
adapt an old mouse or we can supply one
so they can have rapid fire button with speed adjust. So need to switch it
off for normal use too.
unfortunately these seem more expensive (over £3) than the mice we buy ;-)

yes I know there maybe a software solution but we need to attract more
than just keyboard kiddies to hardware.

looking to buy 20-40

Alibaba should work.
