Yes, Bunnings and really any hardware store would carry these.
Astro-nutt's suggestion of screw-in legs is a good one too. Particularly if you regularly set up the dob on turf. The short stumpy rubber feet are no good on turf, so the whole underside of the ground board rests on the turf. This totally changes the scope's action as now you have the added 'mush' of the turf to contend with. Short legs, say about 100mm to 150mm would be fine. Using the furniture leg plates that astro-nutt mentions means that the legs can be removed so the scope compacts down a much as it did before, so not changing the way you currently stow your dob.
