I'm using one that I built based on DDRHomepad's design. I plan to tear it apart and re-use some of the materials for a Riptide design pad.

Hey Beefman,

What do you think of this? I will layer weatherstripping all over the bottom contact, around the screw in the middle. You think that will distribute pressure adequately?
