Vibration reducing 2020 profile feet

thingiverse

These feet serve two main purposes: to minimize vibration and prevent your printer from slipping on a surface. To reduce vibration effectively, cut small squares of a vibration-absorbing material (like carpet, toolbox liner, or even a mousepad) approximately 25mm in size, then place them inside the feet. I found this method extremely effective as a vibration dampener, but be sure to keep the material thin. In addition to reducing vibration, these feet can also prevent your printer from sliding off a surface. You can secure them by screwing them down or attaching grippy material (or even a thin layer of silicone caulk) to ensure a stable fit. I created this design specifically because I needed to reduce noise and prevent my Hypercube from slipping on IKEA LACK tables. The existing 2020 extrusion feet are often too tall or fail to provide a secure grip, which is why I designed these feet with functionality in mind. The design includes three versions: 1. A version without screws that relies on friction for mounting 2. A version with one central screw to maintain a clean look while securing the foot firmly 3. A version with four screws for optimal symmetry and grip On the versions with screws, I used a #6 screw; specifically, a pan head screw for the four-screw design and a flat head screw for the single-screw option.
