Squash ball anti vibration feet

myminifactory

I've been relying on Hofftari feet for all my printers, but they can sometimes wobble, prompting me to experiment with squash balls for vibration damping. Their rubber composition is commonly used in industrial applications for its dampening properties. When I place the printer on these modified feet, it feels like it's standing on a soft surface, yet during printing, even quick movements barely cause any movement, significantly improving stability over Hofftari feet. The different hardness levels of squash balls make them suitable for various printers, and for my Prusa i3 MK2, I'm using the yellow two-dotted balls, which are relatively soft. The cups themselves are designed to compress the ball by about 30%, making this solution versatile enough to also be used with HiFi electronics.
