Where did you get the foam tape?  My Centipede had that on the back edge of the control panel

Ahh... good question... this stuff was a real pain to locate... I first thought mcmaster... but most of what they had was double sided...

I thought that was just standard stuff you can get at any craft store?

Certainly could be... and shame on me for not checking... I just do so much on line (with the exception of the hardware store)... I rarely shop.

At least you didn't order a "specialized part" and pay $50 for it.   ;D

... I can say I've not made that mistake yet... I came close a few times early on in the hobby... now I'm  usually more cautious... NOS stuff still usually kills you but most hardware and ancillary stuff is usually no big deal.
