LOL... cool case. I hear ya on the foam though. I live in the "sticks" too, and ive never found the good dark grey type foam used in the good cases either! I'd love to find a supplier that wouldnt charge an arm and a leg for it. I'd imagine find a re-upholsterer guy.....
I'll have to give that a try. I didn't think of that. Thanks brother.
Try these guys. I just redid 2 Pelican cases with a half sheet I got from them.

That was exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks brother.
x2.. Thanks for the link !
I have used Foam Factory a couple times. I even bought a couple rolls of neoprene to line my toolbox drawers with.
Get good foam and hot wire cut it. That is the best.

You can also use an electric knife to cut it.
If I ever get my tax stamps back I'll finally be able to put something in my new gun case.
+2 for foam factory . Com
Don't know if you are still looking but I just received my foam from Andax and it worked out great. Can't say anything bad and their customer service was excellent. I worked with Dawn and she sent me out a schematic sheet for me to draw out what I had in mind. Was kinda skeptical at first as I am not the worlds best artist by any means but their instructions were easy to follow. This was then followed up with an option to talk to their engineers about possible changes based on the size of the container as well as doing what the foam is supposed to do - protect your loved ones

Nice. I already bought from the foam factory. Thanks for the input though. Lets just say mine isn't that pretty. I had to get creative because of clearance issues but I have room for my SBR AR, 2-1911's, 2-suppressors, 2-optics, 10- 1911 mags, and 10- 30rd AR mags and still extra room.
Thanks big time for that link!! I've been all over the web looking for replacement foam for a couple of cases and just about everywhere wants big $$ for just a little bit of foam. Kudos to you.
DAMN!!! Thats a bigger box then I thought. Can you upload a pic of the finished product? I have been toying with the idea of doing something like this.
Thanks!
That is freakin sweet!
How much did that cost you?View attachment 27671

It was $85 to have the foam cut and I paid their design guys $12.50 to look at my drawing and let me know if it could be done differently (they didn't suggest anything other than adding finger slots). All said and done it was $108.29 shipped. Quick and got exactly what I wanted. Couldn't be happier and will definitely be going to them for my Savage 10 .308 case.
Not nearly as bad as I thought! I have a Plano AW case I may have them do. Did you get a choice on what weight foam they sent you if so what did you choose and thoughts on it? I am leaning towards a pretty heavy grade.
The set up I went with was a 4 layer system. A heavy grade upper layer and a med heavy 3 under layers. Keep in mind, this is not the pluck and pull style foam - its pretty durable. The top layer is fairly firm and doesn't just mush when you push down on it.
