   Where possible I make replacement feet and mounting "rubber" parts from/
with silicone (RTV) sealant/rubber.  I mold things using Teflon insulators
(from 6 to 8" coax) and polyethylene garbage bags.  (super thin)
   Once fully hardened I generally glue one side to part of the finished item
with the same silicone (RTV) sealant/rubber.  I only use clear (generally
aquarium sealant) and High temperature red gasket maker.
