WTB: PCB Mounting Feet
« on: October 17, 2005, 04:32:30 pm »
I've seen these on ebay for 2 bucks for four and 5 bucks shipping and handling and happs has them, but it just seems ridiculous to pay 5 bucks for shipping and handling on 40cents worth of plastic.

So, does anyone have any of these laying around that they might be willing to throw into an envelope for me??  I'm looking for either a set of 4 or up to 12 to have around as spares.

I don't mind paying a few bucks for them, I just don't like getting ripped off... 

thanks!

Ben

You can also use anything you can find lying around from chopped up biro pens to macaroni!

I used a cut up Paper Mate ink pen shaft cut into 1/2 inch lengths.  Worked perfect!

Good luck,

Kev~

You guys are smart!

Thanks for all the PCB Mounting Feet replacement ideas.  I never even pondered using alternatives.

Don't they collapse easily?
