I have a perfectly good 3 step ladder excepting that the rubber "feet" for each leg are worn through so the ladder cuts up my floors. I contacted the manufacturer (Casabella) but the unit is discontinued with no parts available. Any tips for a DIY workaround? The legs are rectangular rather than round, for whatever that's worth. |

Cut holes in tennis or raquet balls that are large enough for the legs of the ladder to get in while staying on. Problem solved. |

Raquet balls, maybe. Tennis balls, no way. You'll be slip sliding on the fuzz. |

Buy a new ladder. It is safer. |

Personally, I'd go to Home Depot, Lowes or Bed Bath and Beyond and get a new one too, but that wasn't the question. |
