Been thinking about getting one of those expensive padkeeper things to tidy up the saggy pad, I couldn't bring myself to spend the money, so did this instead for £8.

Trying to add more photos but forum is crap on my phone :-(

See my Instagram for more details including a diagram with dimensions.

Nice job andyabro :thumb:

I bought mine from Germany and it cost €60 plus €20 shipping to Spain. Looks tidy now but yours looks pretty much the same and at £8 a real bargain.

Hi andyobro,

I bought mine from a woman called Elvira Nehring ([email protected]) and to the best of my knowledge she is still in business. I know there was another company doing them which is mentioned on this thread :

Any way, as I said you've done a good job on yours :thumb:

Click to expand...

Elvira is the wife of the guy that past away :-(

I tried to contact http://www.kunststofftechnik-buehler.de/ a few months ago but got no response, I decided the Germans are ignoring us because of Brexit (you can see there point :) )
 
Ah thanks for the update, I didn't realise she was the wife. Only one thing left to do then....you need to start making them. :thumb:

Nah the Germans love us :D

ATB :)
 
Sad to hear he passed away, I got mine off him about 4 years ago, RIP. Great work andyobro :worship: .
 
I have one too that I bought off someone on here. i think they did two types, one in plastic and one in carbon fibre? Mine is a plastic one. They do a great job too.
 
I have David Etter's Pad Keeper. Great product, and very quick to install.
Cheers,
Tore
 
Thanks for this. Another project that needs doing and it should be within my limited abilities
