The big rubber feet

2012-05-26 by Terje Winther

Hi all,
Thanks a lot for all the input on this list. I have repaired a  
Matrix-12 some time ago, but not everything is tip-top, so I am doing  
a second round of service on it.
Once again I am looking for rare parts, but seem to have located most  
of them thanks to this list.
But what about those extrordinary big rubber feet?
The one I have here has only 1 of the four original feet still in  
place, and they are BIG. I have tried locating something, but nothing  
comes even close to the size. One could argue that it doesn´t really  
matter; it is just a rubber feet that no-one will ever see, but  
remember that this is a big synth, so it should have big feet as well.
Any ideas for what I can use, or where I can find something? (I don´t  
expect to find any original rubber feet)
I tried furniture shops, but the rubber feet they have are either too  
small (both in diameter and height), or they are long, but too thin,  
and most of all they are often too hard, while the original Oberheim  
rubber feet are somewhat softer.
