Build your own foam insert

I have had this suitcase for like 5 years, the foam in it began to go in pices. So i looked around the net for a great but cheap idea on making foam inserts DIY, and DIY we like :) So here you can see my final result, my radio is vey secure this way.

This will take about 5 minutes to prep and total time including wainting on the foam will take 4-5 hours from beginning to end..

 So how do I make it ? :)

Things you need:

- 1 old t-shirt or a new one you could offer¨
- 1 spray can of Building foam
- Follow my step by step and you will be allright.

Step 1 : Prep your item align it in your suitcase/case/drawer whatever.

Step 2: Take your t-shirt and prep it in the case no need to overdoo it, just do it like shown on the pic.

Step 3: Iam using building foam from Biltema in Norway, any building foam will work just fine.

 

Step 4: Apply foam, just a thin nice layer allover the place, remember that building foam expand ALOT. so do not overdo it :)

Step 5: Let it stay under preassure for 3-4 hours.


Step 6:The foam is done.

Step 7: Flip it over and enjoy the result .


look at the print:

Nice and cosy :)
