After my AKULA, which was a learning project, I start another scratch built.
As material I now use modeling board or Polyurethane board, it’s a very dens foam, comes in various densities. David Merriman got me hooked on it. I will never go back to any other material.
The raw materials

Cutting the board up

The cutting resulted in a pile of blocks with were carefully labeled with purpose and dimensions. This stuff is expensive so you don’t want to end up with a huge pile of waste, so think before you cut and measure twice.
