I cleaned the CR70 as much as I could, and it actually cleaned up well. I went to Lowe's to try to find plastic feet for the bottom, and nobody had any idea what I was talking about. I tested it out, and aside from the fact that you have to change the settings for each color, I like it a lot.

Look in the closet or cabinet hardware area.
I bought, what they referred to as sliding closet door bumpers at a hardware store. They looked like rubber feet, but they were white. The screws, they included were wood screws. I used 6/32's.
BTW, my CR70 was missing a foot as well. I looked through my hardware and found one that was close in size.

Man, this is an epidemic! My good one was missing a foot and I think my parts unit was as well. Its case was in rough shape; bashed in on top, rusty hardware. I trashed it some time ago, keeping some parts for the good one.

Neither Lowe's nor Menards (the latter usually more likely) had "plastic feet".
No idea what they were.

But Menards had "furniture slides", a very large display. Amongst them
were plastic feet of all descriptions, also a large selection.

What Lowe's does have is a large selection of misc hardware stuff that
we need, especially for boatanchors. Cotter pins, standoffs, those clips that
hold shafts in place, nice 4x4 inch sheets of metal, etc. They are in the drawers
under the bolts and nuts, look in "automotive" drawers there too. (Edit: By "there" I mean
under the bolts and nuts. If you need odd hardware, try there first. Don't believe
the drawer labels, check everything at at least once to get an idea.)
