Hello
Some friends and I are just getting started. We've seen and heard about shields that appear to be all foam and cut from a single sheet with straps put thru it.
I went to the local foam store and tried to tell them what I needed but they seemed confused.
They appear to be pretty straight forward to make, I just don't know what type of foam to ask for. Is anyone able to help me out with what type of foam I need to ask for? Just saying computer packing foam doesn't seem to click with the foam store salesperson. I'm also not sure if I need to get thinner layers and glue them together or just get a single slab of thicker foam.
Also, if anyone knows of any Foam Stores in the greater Seattle area I'd love to hear about them. I've only been able to locate the Friendly Foam Shop. I figure if I can pick it up locally that will save a ton of money on shipping as I need enough foam for 5 shields.
Anyways, I have been frustrated by the foam store people and am hoping you guys can help me out. Thank you!
