Raising a pedaltrain for less then $5

I did basically the same thing - bought 4 washer/dryer anti vibration feet and use them to raise my Classic Jr. a little. My power supply (True Tone CS12) underneath the board with no problem, but I recently mounted a Broughton Alway On HPF underneath and, while it fits, it just barely fits. So I stack two of these feet under each of the rear feet of my board and that raises it enough to give me a little more clearance. I rarely hit the pedals in the back row of my board (my tuner, wireless receiver, and compressor are aleays on and I only use my octave on a few songs), but doing this raises the back of the board a little more so the octave is easier to hit when I need it.

I know I should at least glue them together to effectively turn them into one foot, but I've just been stacking them so far and letting the weight of the board keep them together. I've done this on about half a dozen rehearsals and one gig so far and it worked fine. But I really should secure things better.

It's less "than" $5, not less "then" $5.

How embarrassing. That's the kind of thing I usually point out. :facepalm:

It's been over 2 years since I put this solution in play and I've had to reglue one foot once. Granted the board doesn't move arounduch these days, it did come out a bit before the world shut down a few months after initially doing this.
