Adjustable Feet for Inclined Surfaces

Try your search on "machine levelers". Some brands can pivot but I doubt they will go to 45 degrees. If the angle is in one axis then a simple clevis and pin should perform what you ask.

Good hunting

A Clevis and pin wouldn't help me much. I need "feet".

When I put "Machine levelers" in the Google "Image" search, I didn't get much, but saw something from

Can you elaborate on what "Reid" is and where to find a picture of the TL-4 you mentioned?

I may have to make something myself, which may be doable since I only really need the feet to adjust on one axis. Perhaps some sort of triangle carved out of Delrin, which an axle running through the top.

Thanks.

Give this a try:

Built similiar feet for a mobile telescope tripod. Used 2X4's and plywood with bent sheetmetal brackets for the pivots.

Keep trying

I think what Mawdeeb was suggesting is that you have a flat pad, be it either round or square, with two "legs" rising up from the top of the pad, with holes through them so that a single "post" (also with a hole in it) from the table leg could be inserted between the legs on the top of the pad, and a pin inserted to let the pad swivel at the bottom of the leg. It would give you at least 45 degrees of swivel and still would let the pad sit flat on the floor. The pin and clevis would be just the mount to attach the pad to the bottom of the leg. Ken.

Not a pick at this post, but the whole idea of swivelling feet.

My ankles hurt!

Sorry.

OK.

If you have feet that simply allow something to sit flat on a sloped floor, but stand the _swivel point_ up from the floor, and the floor is sloped but coplanar, so that all adjustable feet are at exactly the same angle to adjust, you are gping to get a toppling effect, are you not? It's as if you had a completely level floor, but pushed your supported item sideways.

In all of these ball feet etc you need locks.
