I remember someone (G-J?) asking a while back about the size of feet on flatbases.

Just got to make some myself, and they are 14mm diameter by 6mm high.

That's measured off my 48 SE2

No worries

I'm undecided what to use

1) Make wooden ones ?
2) Buy the little rubber stick on feet that can be bought from Bunnings. Well I've seen felt ones for furniture, so they should have rubber ones?

3) Punch some out of an old car mat?
