Do you guys have an alternative plastic caul for round foot of sound hole clamps? I can’t justify $6 each…

Why wouldn’t you just use a scrap of wood? You could even glue some cork or felt to it iif you wanted.

Hey Jim!
Cork doesn't stay put when I glue it onto the metal cup. Might hold better if it wasn't void of material in the center. Guess I could cut some HW circles with a hole saw and inlet them on one side to fit over the foot of the clamp- thanks, that's a great idea!
