Hi everyone and Alice in Wilmshurst > I obtain polystyrene strips from an electrical shop, but I rather fancy self > healing > blocks. The cost might be prohibitive of course.
To buy retail as a 'raw' block, yes (if you can possibly find an industry-related shop that sells it, perhaps they'd have an endcut you could buy) - - self-healing foam/ethafoam can be found as packing, or flotation-related equipment (usually paddle boards, and the children's pool 'noodle' and 'plank' for example - though not this time of year). I bought a foam drink-tin holder, the sort for insulating, though they don't seem to work in that regard, then thinking it could be the basis for a roller pillow of some sort, or cut apart and used flat - it proved to be self-healing - cost, $1 Hopefully someone on your side of the pond has made a similar discovery ;) -- bye for now Bev in Sooke BC (on Vancouver Island, west coast of Canada) Cdn. floral bobbins www.woodhavenbobbins.com - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
