DIY 41C Feet Replacement - Help - TallKey - 05-01-2023 01:38 AM
Have a 41 in need of feet, it has none.
The material does not need to have adhesive, I have double stick adhesive. Material with adhesive backing is good too.
Hoping for a DIY solution to the missing feet.

Someone was selling replacement rubber feet for it on eBay, which I bought. I don't have the information anymore, but if he's still there selling them, a little searching should find them.

Found ebay sellers many months ago, there are often 2 to 3 of sellers offering replacement feet.
Hoping for DIY option. Like "hobby lobby sells..." that works great.

I bought a sheet of rubber off the 'Bay. Its been a while but IIRC it was by Ruby's Rubber's (wife raised an eyebrow when that package came in the mail). The sheet was the right thickness and quality tube material. Guy sells the remnants.
Cut to size and add some quality double sided tape.

DIY method: Use an old bike innertube, one of the thicker grade 'thornless' ones is best. Cut to shape, slightly trim the corners to rounded, apply your d/s tape, all done.

I've always just cut some sheet rubber to size and used rubber cement to attach the feet.
And used a circular x-acto knife to make the circular rubber feet for the TI machines.

I bought a sheet with adhesive backing from rubber supply warehouse (I think that was the name) several years ago. If you don't mind cutting your own feet and are in the US, I'd be happy to send you a section at no charge. Just drop me a PM with your address.
