Prusa MK4 Foam Feet: Embiggened

It turns out the Prusa MK4 weighs enough to squish my add-on foam feet to about half their original thickness:

Prusa MK4 Foam Feet - embiggened
Prusa MK4 Foam Feet – embiggened

The two in the front are 30×30 mm and the shorter (more squished) foot was under the right rear of the MK4 where the power supply lives.

The larger feet (one installed) are 60×60 mm and, with the same weight supported on four times the area, should squish much less.

Stipulated: I can’t hear the difference either way.

This project was precipitated by finding a large scrap of exercise mat foam in a place where it shouldn’t have been.
