Just buy one of those cheap foam bed pillows from wal-mart. There only like $10.00.

I've seen cheaper ones in the stores.

After about 10 min of looking I started asking. This is what I got:

Oh your looking for foam? Hmm, what are you useing it for? padding for an armrest in my truck. Oh we don't carry those. No I understand that but I am pretty sure you have foam. Well... let me ask this guy. Nope we don't carry that.

I went through 3 different departments like this before I finnaly just left. It happens to me all the time.

So I still don't have anything for padding. I think I'm going to call some upholstering shops for advice.

You can only ask for help if:

A) you have a specific item in mind and you can at least lie and say that you are using it for it's intended purpose.

B) you just want general guidance to get you into an area of the store.

C) You wnat to confirm your fidnings and have a second opinion that what you want isn't there.

I rarely ask for help in either store, but I usually get apporached by employees asking if I need help. I know that if I tell them what I want (usually something wierd), it will stump them and they will leave feeling defeated. So I tell them.

Lowe's is better for Hardware and fasteners (not by much, but they are better)

Home Depot is better because they have cuter girls working there. (Hell they were featured in Playboy.

you need to finish this

getitdone · 04-06-2006, 07:53 AM

AHHHH! I know. It's just sitting in my truck half finished. Everybody keep bugging me and motivate me to get it done! I have sliders, drivetrain lift, suspension, shock mounts, roof rack, soft top, and now I want to do bumpers! A lot of those are started and sitting in my garage. Endless projects and full time school/full time work to deal with.

Napoleon047 · 04-06-2006, 09:16 AM

for the foam, i would find a local car interior place that does custom work, i would bet they have some small scraps around they would sell cheap or free.

I say that if you don't finish it in the next week then the mods should change your name.

getitdone · 04-07-2006, 10:15 AM

getitdone · 04-10-2006, 10:58 AM

220. Why you need something welded?

swerks · 12-14-2006, 12:51 PM

Hey! what ever happened here ?

seanz0rz · 12-14-2006, 12:57 PM

shame i missed this.

im working on designes for mine, most likely built out of MDF, but i like the idea of steel much much more, stronger and takes up less volume.

for me i will be doing the same with the cd player by with a cb radio.
