They're at home!

Also, if I can get the plastic ones I'll need exact diameter, none of this stretchy rubber nonsense.

I have just measured the inside of a white plastic ferrule and I make it 19mm.

Here is a close up of the fabric used.

Not bloody doing them again

You got me thinking its the wrong material now

meh **** it.

Amazing use of personal accountability there budski.

Still, I think you did a good job. I still need to recover the last of mine then I'll likely have one for sale.

Think I've found a UK source for (near) authentic ferrules. Placed an order, will report back if they're correct.

Yep, Greathopper got the right stuff.

I should hope so my stools were brand new from Japan.

Fair enough.

I guess I may have mislead poor Kern by erroneously wroting "crushed velour" instead of... uhm... velour. Still though, common sense and using your fricking eyes would help...

I really should have gotten a couple of those stools from Japan before I left. The ones I have now are a pain in the ****. No pun intended.

Forum members living in Japan ftw.

They've sent me black ones, rather than the clearly stated on the order "white" ones.

While I get this sorted out, I'm pleased to announce that they're good. Not a match for the original heavy duty ones, these are smaller (approximately half the bulk) and more subtle than the rubber ones available on eBay.

on the colour mix up

If it widens the ferrules available to you, 3/4" is 19.05mm which would fit.

I know this

The imperial sizes are actually more limited! It's the colour that's the problem.
