You could try a decent hardware store. Not a Home Depot but your
local hardware store. The have different size sheets of neoprene you
could but gaskets out of.

What you want is called an "O" ring. Go to any store selling seals
(look in the Yellow Pages) and you should be able to locate what you
want. If you can't find the exact diameter you may need to buy a "O"
Ring Kit which contains the proper thickness material and allows you
to glue up the correct diameter ring.

Totally off topic:

"Maynard G. Krebbs!" Wow. There must be very few of us left out here who
actually enjoyed that great black and white show. And to think it's star
went on to be the great Gilligan. Nice to see you Maynard.

lol, Some young kids recognize it because the "Life and Loves Of Dobie
Gillis" was on Nickelodean sp. That's what the 13 year-olds were
telling me while lightsabering the crap out of me when playing Jedi
Outcast online anyway.

I like the name since I saw the show as a kid and have been using it
all over the usenet and web for years.
