$120 worth of teperfoam from wicks
Fancy wedge cutting jig
Fist layers
Firm green foam where I will step into the plane
First side support pieces
Ready for the upholster! So from bottom to top its two layers of 1/4" high density green pvc foam(used for final height adjustments), one layer of firm green foam, two layers of medium blue foam, and one layer of soft pink foam. The hard PVC foam is great for final 1/4" adjustments because its about 1/3 the weight of temperfoam and can be ordered in various thicknesses. Everything is glued together with the spray glue thats recommended on the Wicks site. The sides were trimmed down with my bandsaw until everything was flush. It turns out that the foam is really easy to sand when its frozen. This was probably the only time during the build when I was hoping for OAT in the teens. It looks a bit dirty now, but I think it will look great when I get it back from the upholster.
