    Go for it but just don't get into evaps again for a while. You do great work even if I don't know and never could figure out what it was for!

    being unqualified in the magic of cnc :p that's side to side (X and Y) and up and down (Z) right?

    I've just been looking for some simple 1.5" round, 1" high (approximate) feet with the bottom milled out with a .6" radius, and a .2" depression...

    not sure if that made sense, working on a sketchup quickly now

    nope, nothing inscribed, just a milled indent in the bottom so I can fit rubber feet in.

    damn, wish I was better at sketchup now....

    EDIT- ok, I have a rough sketchup, the measurements should be correct (in mm currently). PM me about price, I'd like to know before you go doing anything.

    I have a drill press at work... one of the few tools I actually have access to (and I can't make **** in sketchup, that took me way longer than it should have already)
