Radiator Pedestals?

What sizes of pedestals are available these days, and from where? I constantly encounter those retiled bathrooms with the radiators sitting on wood blocks like an old Chevy in someone's front yard, and need to fix them. As we all know, extenders can buy you about 1-1/2", but the radiators are usually off by about 3/4". I have a vague recollection of Gordo doing something with having new ones cast some years ago, and I think Burnham still makes one size, so what's the scoop? About 3/4" would be ideal, I think.

    Check out OCS they have 2 and 3 inch if you need taller.

    Marble threshold (available where marble tile is sold) is about ¾" thick. I have them under my radiators in both bathrooms.
