ok so I got an idea for something that I am hoping to get working soon

the difference between this guy and my design (he has code and schematic in description) is he uses an earth strap on his and with mine I was going to put a brass plate over the top with a small spacer(double sided tape) the plate will be connected to the earth of the voltage divider.... will this work?
am going to use graphite powder and a film of double sided tape to adhere his paper touchpad to something a bit firmer

That looks good. How does this work? Hoping he is not using his other hand to control the mouse :)
