What's this stuff called and where can I get it from?



I've made a 120mm hole in the botton of my case and this rubber stuff would be the ideal finishing touch.

cheers

Thanks all, I was searching for "rubber trim" on ebay and this came up LOL

That stuff would be perfect, thanks. I've bought some files from ebay and when I've smoothed the razor sharp edges around my hole (hopefully without severing a finger) that stuff will perfect.

I would like to find some trim on ebay because I've got some monies in my PayPal account, but I don't know which section to look under or what to search for any suggestions?

Wrong for that purpose, and a poor example of what it WAS meant to be anyway. amateurs.

Sounds painful to have a razor sharp hole...






Window trim is exactly what you need.

yeah... their site has some problems calculating shipping for smaller items...

you can try contacting bill personally through the sites email and asking for cheaper shipping on such a small item
