A little maintenance: Caps installed for feet bolts

Installed some caps so the bolts stopped marking up my floors. They also offer more surface area for stability. Around $6 total.

6 - Neoprene washers (for protection between the cap and feet)
6 - Plastic screw caps
4 - m6 20mm bolts
2 - m6 25mm bolts (1 for each heel)

You can buy those caps at Amazon.

Great idea !!!!! I've spent forever covering foot bolts with 'anti-rust' duck tape whilst she's in the shower being washed down.

For this problem I can also advice to use (fitting) shoes with a rough sole, like boat shoes if that makes sense.
