Upright compressor mounting blocks

[rslaback]

At my previous house I had my 60 gallon compressor mounted to the floor with 1/2" tapcons through pieces of 3/4" thick cow mat. Naturally, with everything in boxes I can't find a damn thing.

Now that I finally have the electrical run for the compressor the blocks it was mounted on have come up missing. I no longer have a source of the mat scrap to make new blocks unless I want to buy a full sheet of it. Does anyone else have any bright ideas of rubber hunks that I could use to mount it? Right now I am leaning towards cutting a 4x4 jeweler's bench block into quarters and using it.

Any other suggestions?

I have read several times people using hockey pucks with a hole drilled thru the center

Yep, hockey pucks work great!

Not too ****, but I plan on adding these under my CH 60 gallon:

Put them under the feet and the manual said to run the nuts down to touch the feet then back off 1/16" and double-nut to prevent them from loosening.

Truck mudflap. The kind with the cloth fibers in it.

On second thought... I think I bought these:

They have a metal spacer to go between the foot and the pad......

I used Anti-Vibration Pads from Home Depot. In fact, I liked the results so much I started a thread about using those exact pads and thought it be nice to share with others.
