Cabinet rubber cushion replacement
#1

I am a new member.  I collect Philco radios as well as others.  While working on cabinets I'd like to replace old or missing rubber cushions on the bottom.  Any recommendations on web sites for sources?

Hi and welcome!

Renovated Radios should be your first stop for these parts.

On the cabinet bottom or the chassis bottom? For the bottom of the cabinet you can find those in most hardware stores or home improvement centers, sometimes even dollar stores. For the corner cushions of Philco chassis Renovated Radios is one outlet, Radio Daze another, since it's a specialty item. If it's the generic large rubber washers there are a number of sources for those, AES has them, as does Radiodaze and Renovated Radios, other source might be McMaster-Carr or fleabay.

Arran --- Thank you for the guidance. I actually need those under the cabinet and will check out HD or Ace. But appreciate the other recommendations also.

Cordially

Mike
