Guncase foam?

[crashwg]

Any idea as to where to find the stuff?  I need a piece about 1"x5"x5".  I've checked wal

Ask TA Pilot... he seems to be a gun lover.

Are you talking about the gray foam stuff that's in a case?  It has little pyramids of foam?

It's just shaped foam rubber.  An upolstry supply may have it.

Any sewing store (JoAnn Fabrics, Minnesota Fabrics, Hancock, etc.) will have foam in various densities and sizes.  Colors are typically just white & green though.

You need the actual gray stuff?  Not sure about that.

I'm just going out on a limb here, so don't flame me for my suggestion, but if I were you, I'd try a gun shop.  

Seriously, though, give them a try, OOOORRRRR, look in your yellow pages for a fabric store (dunno, but Joanne fabrics is in my area) and see if they have it.

You are referring to the "egg crate" type of foam, yes?  If it's something else altogether, let us know.

Not the eggcrate stuff but rather the stuff that's cut out in the shape of the contents for a PERFECT fit type stuff.  Understand what I'm talking about?

I think there's a joanne nearby, I'll try there.  As for a gunshop, closest one I know about is like 30 miles away, hardly worth the trip if you ask me!

I think I gotcha about that stuff.  All they did was take a knife and cut it out of a solid piece of that stuff.

The only other stuff I can see doing that with is a HARD foam, kinda like they use for flower arrangements (my wife's a florist) where it's hard, like what they use to pack up a tv, but not the "tons of styro balls mashed together" stuff - more like "the insides of a malted milk ball" texture.  THAT stuff is way easy to work with - any power tool will work.

Did that help, or are you talking something STILL completely different?

Something the density and resilliance of the egg carton foam but not in that shape.  Pretty much the same matterial but not shape I guess...

Here's what I use for my gun cases:

It's called "pick-and-pluck" foam.

Could you post some pics of the stuff and some general pricing on it?

I have looked for this exact stuff before as well.  A lot more difficult to find than I ever thought it would be.  I never actually found what I wanted.  The closest thing I could find was some sort of green foam stuff in a fabrics store.

Ignore the login stuff. Just click on the blue "replacement parts" text.
