I have my pinball machine on hardwood style vinyl, and while its supposed to be scratch proof, I don't exactly want to test that out with some serious tilting. So currently I have the pin on rubber pads, however they grip so well that it seems to be hindering my ability to tilt effectively. Does anyone know a good floor protector that isn't just rubber? I've thought about trying the felt pads, but I think those will just let it slide around too much. what do you all use? TIA!

those look really nice, but from what I read in the comments they are really meant for use on carpet. It said they used to do some with felt on the bottom for hard floors, so if they used to do that, then maybe felt doesn't slide too much, looks like i'll have to try that out!
something like these look like they might work well.

I am not a fan of the pin footies as I'm sure they do a great job to protect your floors and allows you to slide your machine but I find they stick out like a sore thumb. The problem with sticking felt underneath existing leg levelers is they will eventually come off over time.
It's too bad Marco no longer carries the "ez glide" leg levelers because I did a group buy a few years back and ordered 60 sets. Here is their replacement and brewmanager can probably confirm these don't work well on carpet. They might be fine if you have a hard surface like hardwood, laminate or even concrete.

You could try out a site like this one because these look similar to the "ez glide" ones from Marco before.

Shipping to Canada might be killer if you order a lot. I had mine shipped to my friend's address in Detroit and had another friend mule them back for me. If I had them shipped to my door it was around $80 otherwise it was $9.95 to Detroit! You can also imagine the package with 60+ leg levelers and few other pinball parts was not light.

My preference, but you won't be sliding anywhere with these.
