oooooo baby. Those are some of my favorites right there. What's the name of the African tree that grows the foam? :D

Kidding aside, have you used the foam before? Any experiences you can share?

My son and I scored some really awesome veneers today... Now, I really have to choose which of these to use for my Swap Bow Victim....

Boy I'm going to have to lift my game with all these combo's showing up here.Got a riser done but will have to wait for weeks until some decent glass shows up, as all my present stuff is a write off, and want to be able to use belly veneers.
