What do you guys use on the bottom of your pedals for rubber feet?  I want something no more than 1/4" tall if possible, and something that won't fall off.  Ideally I'd love to have something similar to the large rubber pad on the bottom of my danelectro black coffee pedal.  Its just like 1/8" thick rubber pad that covers pretty much the entire bottom, any idea where I could get something like that?

What type of enclosure are you using?

I dug up a thread I started last year... it never went anywhere since there wasn't too much interest.

I actually saw that thread but noticed it kind of ended with no one getting them...did you get some?  How much would they cost?  I'd definetly be interested if they weren't too pricey.  I'm going to be using size B boxes, 4.37 x 2.37.  I'd take 10 of those rubber feet things, maybe more.

I use the heavy black craft foam that you get at WallMart, and glue it to the entire bottom. I believe it's around 5/16" to 3/8", and is tough as nails.

  Anything...lol
  RACO's don't sit right without feet.
  I use...
  Old Mouse Pad
  2x thickness Popsickle stix, plenty of Glue All around/between...glue all makes a great sealer/finish, strengthens, holds down splinters etc. super easy hand apply/quick dry.
  Rubber self sticks re-used from cassette salvage, BION, the re-used self stick is still working long after...
  ripped hardwood strips across the bottom on 2 sides
  Screws in the other corners of the plate to match the plate mount screws height.
  I use Rubber Cement or Epoxy to secure these feet types to the box.

I get this self-adhesive rubberized foam weatherstripping. Put a couple strips on the back and it won't move on nearly all surfaces.

Remember all the crap mouse mats you just threw out? Bet you wish you hadn't, now! :icon_wink:

I get the stuff I was talking about at work and have no idea if it is at the hardware stores. It is basically the same stuff as the bottom of the mousepads with that small diamond pattern but in a roll with adhesive on it.

I found a big sheet of the black 3M bump-ons on eBay a couple years ago, not even half way through them all.

Got lucky I guess(out of character).
