I just bought a hard case and it comes with the usual egg crate stuff.  I wanted to cut a custom insert, but I don't know where to get that kind of foam.  Help!!

What type of case do you have, and what type of foam are you looking for.

I recently bought some
1.4#
Open Cell Polyurethane (Ether) Foam

Each piece is 50.5" x 13.5" x 1.625", and three to a set to fit in a Pelican 1750 Case (Top, middle, & bottom): you cut the middle layer to fit your equipment then glue it to the bottom piece for a sturdy secure setup.

I had to buy 10 sets as a minimum order from the local foam shop $25 per set I think, and used like 5 sets of them.

Let me know if these would fill your needs, as I don't need the other 5 sets.  I’ll sell them for what I paid for them plus shipping if you or anyone else is interested.

The interior dimensions are 31.375x12.875x4.  It's a Winchester aluminum breakdown shotgun case.  You can see it at www.beaconww.com, the model # is WGS-1151A.  I think it will work for me, but I'm not positive.  What do you want for it?

These might work for you but would require some trimming to fit. The only thing that has me worried is that three of these stacked is 4.875 and I'm not sure if that would fit in a 4" cavity but maybe it would smash down I'm not sure.

I have no idea how much shipping would be as I've never shipped foam so I'd need to call UPS and see how they would handle that.

I'd need to check my invoice at home to be sure but I think I paid $25 for each set of three, and I'd sell them to you for whatever they cost me as I don't need the extra sets...

Pelican Part# 1751 Replacement 3-Piece Foam Set for Pelican 1750 Case retails for $65.95, you can see why I bought in bulk locally.

email me if you are interested

You can purchase foam at a fabric store - Hancocks or JoAnns.
