MechSmith's Foot Mount works great to lock the feet into place. I however experimented with it a little bit and used Autodesk Fusion to turn it into a damper / absorber. This was originally meant for the FlashForge AD5X but it should work well with any printer with a foot diameter of 24mm or less (or you could simply scale the X/Y axis to fit your printers feet.) I closed up the pass through hole (it's now 5mm deep) and extended the bottom by 10mm. Printed in TPU with a .6 nozzle, 3 walls (2 walls could work for extra flex but might need more infill so it does not sink in too far) and 20% Gyroid infill so it would get a good flex on all axis. Working great so far, you can actually see it move up and down a little while printing.
