Macbook Pro Feet

First off, let me please ask that if you find these designs useful and like them, please do like, follow, and share my content. And if you have any ideas or concepts to modify the content, I would love to hear from you! The feet on my Mid 2012 MacBook Pro finally all broke off. Dust was entering through the holes, the bottom was scratching, and I just didn't like what was happening. So I designed these feet which can be glued (I use epoxy) to the original location of the feet. They protrude a small amount to elevate the laptop body. Since I work quite a bit with intensive graphics and computational tasks, the added height helps with heat dissipation from the bottom cover. To install these, I unscrew the bottom cover and glue them into their locations. This avoids any stray glue from entering into the body and attaching itself somewhere you didn't wish it to. It's also a great opportunity to blow out all those ants, dust, and food crumbs. The glue I used for mounting them was Araldites 5-minute epoxy.
