Got tired of using those cork breakpads so I started making sili pads for my old playmaxx throws. Wanted to know if anyone else started doing this because of the low supply of cork pads?

Naw, not yet anyway. I scooped up a lot of 5 packs of black/yellow strings and brake pads for my Bees back in January. I throw them on rare occasions, so those will last awhile.
