That's an interesting idea. Do you think a dustcap would keep them from accumulating grime inside?

I've been getting into 3d printing lately, I think it wouldn't be too hard to design a simple cylindrical cap that is just the right diameter to snug over the softish rubber base and stay in place.

My local public library has 3d printers available for use at a very modest price of 15c/gram. And tinkercad.com is astoundingly easy to use, you should check if any libraries near you have printers and give it a try!
