Title: Cheap Place To Buy Foam
Post by: Geoff on July 07, 2005, 03:34:17 PM

Anyone know of a good cheap place to buy the foam for the camper bed? I know it comes in 60x80x4\" thick and there are 3 styles. I tried the Foam Stop and they are out to lunch on price, also tried one of out interior supliers and they were better but maybe one of you know of a good place?

Thx

kwantlen's trimming class shop also has decent prices on foam. i got the fun spongy stuff for the buggy for a steal, which will be cool when bill actually gets around to doing my carpets... :P  it's on the newton campus off king george, and should have the thicker stuff for cushions too.

I agree with what Moni says. Maybe get in touch with Menno.. I can also talk to Al canuck about foam supplies....

*cue the funky, bass driven 70's porn music*

geoff, you seem to focusing alot on the bed in speed-e these days. could this be the beginning of the bangbus? i hope the name of the vehicle doesnt make refference to something else.... ;)

Bangbus is a registered trade mark that belongs to Firm Rod Industries.....and thats Bang Bus III to you!

Maybe Notchback wants to chime in here :P

Well the bed in any bus is the number one key to sucess. As a fellow Firm Rod executive. Its all about the Bangbus and the action that can or will happen
