A piece of masonite or 1/4" plywood works well and if you have a
scrap around is cheaper. I rubber cemented pieces of old bicycle
inner tube under the corners to help keep it from sliding around .
Stick-on rubber feet should work as well. My several year old Radio
Shack footswitch is attached with double sided foam tape. It was
intended for hands free playback of a dictaphone, but no longer
appears in the catalog.
