Hello All,

I have seen some fields built out of foam instead of wood. Does anyone has a good vendor to order such a foam ?

Thanks for the help,
Marcos.

More than likely what you observed was a table using a4x8 sheet of insulation which is sold in the building materials section of most hardware stores.

This stuff, for example (http://www.homedepot.com/Building-Materials-Insulation-Rigid-Insulation/h_d1/N-5yc1vZbaxx/h_d2/Navigation?catalogId=10053&Nu=P_PARENT_ID&langId=-1&storeId=10051&searchNav=true)
And if you cover it with some 1/4" luan plywood, it will be strong as heck.

Thanks Don,

I went to Lowe's and bought a $17 one to try out. I cut it at the parking lot, so it can fit in my car.

I did a 36",24",36" cut; instead of doing 32" cut in which I was hoping in doing.... but still worked out.

Cheers,
Marcos.
