Looks like a good selection of all sorts of different types of foam. I made my first bumper using the foam cutter and I'm really pleased. Using the wire attachment I cut the outline using a cardboard template then used the straight attachment for the plunge holes. I then used the U attachment...

Wow the foam cutter is amazing! Even without any experience I was able to use it effectively with a little practice. Doom! and WickedFog, you guys are great I really appreciate the tips! When I hand cut (gnawed?) the first one I made it too small on the body edge, so I didn't remove any material...

The wood template is a good idea, I'll make some up. I've got about 4 or 5 cars that need better bumpers (I'm a crappy driver) so hopefully will work out.

Great! cheaper and probably the same stuff. I ordered the cutter DOOM! suggested, it will be here tomorrow. If I can cut this stuff accurately, there's a LOT of uses for it...

If they're like my wife's, the thickness is right but I don't think they are as dense. They have hard outer shells with more porous foam in-between. Our R/C bumper application requires impact reduction from the edge as opposed to between faces. :thumbs-up: :thumbs-up: :thumbs-up: Perfect...

Got the "ballistic plate" foam pad substitutes today, the material seems identical to the original Rlaarlo foam. Only difference is it is 20mm thick instead of 14.5mm. Each piece is about 9" x 12" with upper corners angle cut. Hardness, color and stiffness are the same, and closer inspection...

Found these and ordered them. .80 thick, but I think I can work with that... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09S5Q8WK7?psc=1&smid=A564GXGWR1RZX&ref_=chk_typ_imgToDp Be here tomorrow, will report on suitability after I test it a bit.

Same here. Too many choices and I've no idea what would work best. I've looked at anti-fatigue floor mats at Harbor Freight but they're not stiff enough. Also looked at gardening kneeling pads but too thick. Ideally, 1/2" would be best. The wife has one, too thick and not firm enough. I may hit...

I've been looking all over for some bulk high density foam 1/2" thick to cut up for front bumpers. Anybody have a line on the material the manufacturers use? Is there any other material that will serve the same function? Any suggestions are greatly welcomed...
