Two photos should be finding their way to your inbox shortly. You may note
the foam is wrapped in duct tape. That is because I have found the foam to
give off a fine powder as it ages. The solvent in the duct tape adhesive
will almost certainly accelerate the foam's demise, but who cares--it's a
<$1 fix? (Almost all adhesives, sans hide glue, have solvents. To be strict,
hide glue has the universal solvent--water.)
If anyone else would like the images, please let me know.
