I have lucked out because there is a company near me that manufacturers high density foam. I contacted them and asked if I could have some of their scrap, and was able to get everything I needed for much less that it would have cost me outright. Look in your Yellow Pages for 'Specialty Insulation Products' and make some calls. Maybe theres a similar company near you.

It's expensive, but that the cost of taking these kinds of shortcuts. Less time = more money.

However if you can strike up a deal with a company near you that manufactures this stuff, they throw away TONS of scrap that is completely useful.
