Component supports take a variety of forms: squishy, rubbery things; hard, pointed things; ball bearings (loose or constrained); air or liquid bladders, etc. The Spike component supports, imported by Divergent Technologies, were a new one for me: they use magnetic levitation. Now, I'm familiar with platforms using this principle, but these are individual component feet, each with opposed magnetic components. A box of these "Spikes" contains four such feet, and the price for the total is CN$200. I was surprised that magnets could be made strong enough in this small size to be able to support equipment of substantial weight—hich they apparently can.
Incidentally, there is nothing remotely sharp or spike-like about these component supports. I have no idea how they came up with this name.

, aber doch sicher nicht hart wie eine Masseverbindung? Und ich hoffe, die haben eine schallisolierende Führung des Stempels eingebaut, z. B. aus bei Mondschein kryogensiertem Poytetrafluorsilicon. Ist aber wurscht, ich kümmere mich nicht um Tennisbälle oder Spikes aus Wolframcarbid.
