## The design
This is a squash ball foot in rectangular shape for 2040 extrusions, like used on printers like the Creality CR-10. Extrusions have rectangular shapes and printers built with them also share this visual style. So I wanted squash ball feet to match that shape. Although you won't find a rectangular squash "ball", at least the housing should be rectangular.
## The use case
You thought you have silent motors and silent fans and that's all you can do to reduce your 3D printers noise? Then get squash ball feet. I didn't do measurements, but on my regular desk the feet seem to reduce vibrations I didn't even know my printer has. The moves of the print head are barely audible when I sit two metres next to my printer. If you invested days or weeks and money to silence your printer's fans, then getting squash ball feet is a must. It's not a mile, it's only a small step you just have to do also after messing around with your fans. Most squash ball feet print quickly. This
