Test results - not currently recommended: tests so far do not recommend these rigid feet over Elegoo's anti-vibration feet. In the October 18 dry-motion comparison, everyday motion was similar, Elegoo's feet produced less shake under hard back-and-forth moves, and noise had no clear winner. Print quality was not compared. This result is for my printer on a stone slab over 9 half tennis balls. Read the test results and charts.
What it is: a set of 4 rigid feet for the Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 (CC2). Each foot is a solid PLA cup with a 32 mm bore that slips over one of the printer's soft stock feet, to give a rigid support and the lift needed for my flat screen backplate.
Fits: Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 (CC2) stock feet. Unofficial part, not made or endorsed by Elegoo. Fit checked on my own CC2 only; see the comparative test results above.
Key points
Rigid cup: the stock foot sits in a solid cup; the tests do not establish an anti-rocking advantage.
Raises, never lowers: raises the printer a little and never lowers it (the lift my flat screen backplate needs), so the mainboard intake vents underneath stay clear.
No hardware, no tools: lift a corner, slip the foot on.
No supports, bore up; a set of 4 fits one plate.
Size: 40 mm across, 18 mm tall. Set of 4: about 31 g PLA, about 53 min on a CC2.
The original positive impression was superseded by the October 18 comparison linked above.
Remix credit: the cup interface (32 mm bore, 13 mm deep, 12 mm centre clearance) comes from Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 Anti-Vibration Feet by Simple3D (CC BY-NC). Their version adds a TPU spring that raises the printer; this one has a solid 3 mm base instead, for a rigid foot.
