@Wishknots Thank you for finding the proper terminology for the foam!!!! I literally had no idea what it was called as I had found hunks of it at the side of a highway 😄 🤪 😂 I would love to see your results of your own Loca-Board! 👍
Love this tutorial and have already been gathering the supplies to make it myself!! One thing I want to add regarding the foam. I know you said high density foam but I think you meant EVA foam which is what is used in making cosplays and is generally black or white. The reason I want to make this distinction is because at first when I was looking for "High density foam" I kept getting results like the really spongy soft stuff generally used in making cushions. But when I looked for "High Density Craft Foam", I got EVA foam results which seems more like what you meant in your tutorial . Just wanted to point this out in case people (like me!) weren't sure exactly what the foam was.
THNX for all the comments, Everyone! This has now been my staple! Wow it REALLY helps with Alphas especially, now that I am using this all the time. It's SUPER convenient!
@its_jenny well, the strip at the bottom doesn't have to be as thick as I made it, but all in all, the spongy-foam that I used wasn't that much. From the piece that was found at the side of the road, I still have plenty left to make a few more boards if I needed to. it's almost like memory foam but with more resistance and hold its shape better. It really secures the strings well.
