GENERIC Wooden Replacement feet for your tape deck deck Sony, Pioneer, Akai, Otari, Studer, Sansui, Revox, Roberts Lifetime Guaranty . These are the same feet that I make available for the TEAC X-Series and Pioneer RT-909 tape decks in other listings. Here I offer them at a lower price and unfinished. Buyers will need to do the sanding, drilling and select the appropriate finish for their needs, and then decide on their own mounting solution, likely no more than drilling a couple of holes to fit their own deck. They can be satisfactorily glued in place, making for an incredibly simple install. (I’ve used gutter glue, available at Lowes. We’ve found this stuff to be incredibly useful at a very reasonable cost. While the adhesion is strong enough to keep things in place, the adhesion is by no means permanent.,) These feet measure approximately 9-3/4″ long, 1″ wide, and 7/8″ tall. The top is a flat surface to maximize contact with, and support for, the tape deck. Likewise, the bottom is a flat surface to maximize the footprint. The strength of these feet is an order of magnitude above the strength of the original feet provided by Teac or Pioneer. The originals are so regularly broken that it is routine when looking at Teac decks for sale to find decks with no feet. They didn’t fall off…one got broken and the owner removed the other to level the deck instead of replacing the broken one. These wooden feet are so strong that I’m including a ZIPPO lighter guarantee, to the original purchaser, with the purchase. –>>>>>>>>>> IF THESE FEET EVER BREAK I”LL REPLACE THEM AT NO COST (other than shipping)! See my listings for “Teac X-10R feet” and “Pioneer RT-909” for more photos of how these feet can end up looking. Stated shipping is for the lower 48 states. Please check my feedback ands thanks for your interest. JATOBA WOOD Jatoba wood is regularly used in Brazil for furniture and hardwood floors. It is a very heavy wood and is so dense that in order to put a nail through it one would normally drill a hole first rather than try to drive a nail with a hammer, generally winding up with a bent nail! The course grain is very similar to Teak, it is often mistaken for Teak, and often used where the look of Teak is desired but the oily nature of Teak is not necessarily required.
