Hi all,

I'm making a patio table from softwood. It's a farmhouse style design, so the legs have their end grain touching the patio.
While I've left them standing in wood preserver to suck up as much as they'll take, I also want to attach plastic feet to the bottom to really keep the end grain away from the wet patio when it rains.

I'm actually struggling to find the sort of thing I'm after though. I'm thinking a plastic pad of similar dimensions to the leg cross section, maybe 10mm deep.

Anyone know if that's a thing and what they'd be called so I can search them, or have any examples you can give?

Thanks!
Rob

If the size of your table leg is available, then these are easy to fit.

Rubber Ferrules
Thanks for the suggestion!
I did initially think of these but then it was pointed out to me that even if they fitted very well, water might still get inside and then sit inside the ferrule, causing the opposite of what I want to happen haha.
