A craft store is the best place, like Jo-Anns or another place like that.

This is the foam I have used and it works great!! It’s also cheaper at the store, $5.99 or something like that.

If you don’t have a craft store, get some from [foambymail.com](http://foambymail.com) or find an apholstery store in your neighborhood. They sell white, high density foam normally, 2 inch thick. I got a scrap piece, big enough to make four cases full of foam for 5 bucks. You might also want some RIT dye, cause white turns yelllow after a while.

I forgot to tell you about the dye. Good call Adam!!! The dye will say it doesn’t work on poli (foam is poli) but it does. Also, only use Rit, it orks the best. My last case I made I didn’t use Rit and the green I used came out very light. Rit holds its color really well.
