Business Opportunity?

[Jeff Gaines]

Over they years I have managed to break 4 x feet from my Corsair
Carbide-100R computer cases so I now have 1 x case with no feet.

Corsair actually sell them for peanuts but they are not in stock and
postage cost is silly.

However, Googling turns up several offer of plans/templates for 3D
printers, and they do look exactly like the real thing. Is this a business
opportunity or have I missed the boat? I was thinking in terms of buying
the plans and looking for somebody offering to make things to plan. I
think the investment just for 4 x $1.50 feet is a bit much!

In the meantime I have 4 x rubber door stops on the way from eBay :-)

I seem to have missed the boat by a wide margin!

I have ordered them from an online 3D print supplier, will let you know
result.

That's what I would use.
If the door stops are not stick on then double sided tape will save
having to enlarge or drill new holes.

1.79 for 10. Probably be a bit quieter on rubber feet too...
