Bunnyboybob put these on me to see how they hold up. $1.80 for 20. That's three dolls feet with two over.
He'll keep you posted.
So far so good, as far as I can tell.

Re: Foot bolt covers (experimental stage)
These work well, I 've used them on several dolls. 
They are nice on carpet, but sometimes slip on hardwood or tile.
If you want wood/tile floor grip, then you can spray the cap only with some grippy stuff.
For some I used truck bed liner on the cap. You can use spray or a bit of the liquid paint.
When dry it grips and is pretty rugged.
Cheers!

Re: Foot bolt covers (experimental stage)
Where in North America can you get these? I only found the link below, to a European site. And not as cheap...Birdie Flyhigh wrote: ↑Tue Aug 29, 2023 2:40 pm Bunnyboybob put these on me to see how they hold up. $1.80 for 20. That's three dolls feet with two over.

Is there a product name? And is 10-12 the right size for your typical foot bolt heads?
Thanks

Re: Foot bolt covers (experimental stage)
Check on Amazon US, they have them. Search for "Screw Cover Caps". 100 pcs run about $5 to $8 for a bag.
Also look at your local big box store, like Home Depot or Loews. Smaller lots but usually cost a bit more per unit.
Multiple sizes and types are available to match you foot bolt size.
Cheers!
