    The Warehouse sell lightweight recoil pad blanks for around $2.50. They market them as jandals.
    Or try your local para rubber, the high density foam for some packing cases or gym flooring would work.

    Or not bother with a recoil pad?
    It is a Howa Mini, and the selection of cartridges don't offer much in the way of recoil anyway...
