oooooo baby. Those are some of my favorites right there. What's the name of the African tree that grows the foam?   :D

Kidding aside, have you used the foam before?  Any experiences you can share?

No stopping and switching to Boo cause she's glued.  The foam Lams are .625 with a .050 taper.  Yall do the math

Boy I'm going to have to lift my game with all these combo's showing up here.Got a riser done but will have to wait for weeks until some decent glass shows up, as all my present stuff is a write off, and want to be able to use belly veneers.
