Of course Western Numerical control sells replacement pads for $3-$4 and
they work as designed so why would you even want to try a kludge?

One thing that
I did mention and I'll mention again is that my hammer face
is not original - I stuck on a rubber sticky foot and I suspect that it is
part of the problem. I read here recently that someone has had luck with
carved pink pearl erasers, but I haven't tried that.
I think that was me. The erasers aren't nearly as durable as the
original heavy rubber (after all, erasers *are* designed to wear away!)
hammer face, but they are easily carved.
I never saw any troubles in my ASR33 related to grunge wearing off the
carved eraser, but then again I only ran it for a few hundred hours :-).
