| 3D print rubber feet for IIci/IIcx? | |
| Posted by: Von on 2019-06-07 18:13:10 Hi All, Has anyone tried to 3D print feet for your IIci? When I got mine it had none and they appear to be hard to find... This seller sold his/her last set https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rubber-Foot-Macintosh-IIci-IIcx-Quadra-700-Vintage-Apple-Case-Bumper-Feet-/143139575183?_trksid=p2047675.m43663.l10137 | |
| Posted by: maceffects on 2019-06-07 18:16:50 I think @360alaska made some for the Quadra 700 that might work. | |
| Posted by: dochilli on 2019-06-08 05:28:35 I did not print feet for computer, but other parts of TPU (polyurethane). It is like rubber and could be used for the feet. I made a replacement bumper for an old harddiskdrive, that had a sticky rubber bumper. | |
| Posted by: Trash80toHP_Mini on 2019-06-08 08:49:50 @Johnnya101 ran off a batch of rubberish Q700 feets recently. Devolving that model to flat format would be easily done. Compact Mac replacement pads like those on Macdrone's ProtoMac would be a good project. View attachment 18295 | |

| Posted by: maceffects on 2019-06-09 10:56:31 @Trash80toHP_Mini I made custom clear feet for the SE which could be used for other cases. It was a really obscure size that no one made. These are much improved too and have 3m backing. | |
| Posted by: Trash80toHP_Mini on 2019-06-09 11:41:08 Nice! It's too bad that the Apple logo'd feets would be out of place on SE/SE/30, but solid clear better matches your clear display case anyway. | |

| Posted by: cy384 on 2025-07-09 09:07:16 I've 3D printed some feet in TPU (supposedly shore hardness 95A) and used spray adhesive on the bottom. They're about as rubbery as I'd want, decent grip/flex without being too soft. | |
