Is the foam insulation, everyone is talking about, the pink foam sheets, that comes in 4 feet by 8 feet sheets and is about one inch thick? I see it at home depot all the time and think "there has to be an art project in that stuff."

I saw at a local university where they had glued about three or four layers of this stuff together and cut out interesting bowl shapes to make press mold for ceramic pieces. We may try that this year.

Blessings,
Joe

Form insulation is great!!! Very light weight, it can be cut and sanded to
create any shape! I used it to make a giant paint brush and palate to put on
the wall outside my room.
