    Default Lighthouse Vac Motor Gasket Material

    I screwed up and forgot to order the gasket material for my motors.

    Could someone clue me in to what material they are made of? If possible, I'd like to laser cut them so I can keep moving with my project.

    most any foam tape will work for doors and such. heat is not a problem and a simple loop of it is all you need

    Thanks for the response. I ended up ordering 1/4" Neoprene gasket sheet. Should come in tomorrow.

    I know as a small business I'm supposed to hate Amazon, but it's great ordering something at 11PM on a Thursday and getting it 11AM on Saturday.
