I use a Clipper Wide Treadle Switch from Linemaster. These are
commercial grade, heavy (cast iron, so it stays put), big enough to find
without having to poke around under the table, and do not require a
"heavy" touch to operate. Several switch configurations (SPST, SPDT, 2-
stage SPDT, etc.). Those dinky little things from the usual sources aren't
in the same league.
