gns:

The rubber feet are found in the cabinet/furniture area. In homedepot (and canadian tire too) they are usually mixed in with the furniture leg pads (???) to prevent furniture legs from scratching the hardwood. Ususally sold in packs of 4.

If you are talking about the metal inserts. There are 2 kinds in that pic. They are both found in the “Screws” section with the “turning” display cases (whatever those things are called)

The larger ones are found anywhere, even the smaller stores that I frequent.

But the smaller ones I have only found in the bigger stores. I like these inserts much better.

Received my 2nd box. Thanks again, Joe!

Will post pics once it is all dolled up.

That shit is very brittle and will crack very easily so here are the steps I took.

mark the corner posts as to where you want the rubber feet
place cut plexi and mark the plexi
dremel with engraver bit at the highest setting, I didn’t drill … essentially I melted the plexi holes
use the screws from the rubber feet to check the plexi holes are large enough
confirm the plexi holes and the corner posts are still align. if not remark the corner post
drill the corner posts
slap the puppy on and enjoy.

Received the 4 boxes today; shipping was quick which is good. However… all 4 boxes were sprayed with primer, and I’ve got two projects waiting for natural boxes (they requested stains).

Not particularly happy about that… What are my options? =\

System_1 · June 20, 2009, 3:02pm
