Re: Foam toroid?

My uncle is a taxidermist and he uses a 2 part foam to make forms for his mounts. The foam is mixed from two chemicals which react and expand rather quickly. The density of the foam is determined by how well it is contained in the mold. If one were to create a torroid type mold, you could probably mold one pretty easily. Any surface defects could be remedied using a slow turning lathe setup and some sandpaper or home made turning tool..

Then you've got your foam torroid ready for coating..

Just my 2 cents..

   What does that stuff cost [per cubic inch or foot of foam]?
