[CW] Speed-X 114-520 feet

[GRANT YOUNGMAN]

Well, I was looking at the base of the key again, and … there’s a good reason it doesn’t wobble.  At some point, Johnson must have altered the 114-520 so that it only had three feet.  That’s all there are.  Two in the front, and one centered at the rear …

The feet have gotten a bit hard and lost their “sticky” with age, so I have to use a non-slip pad under it.  At least this one doesn't wobble.
