Pluck Foam

I was under the impression that Clarke Rubber supplied Pluck Foam, but my local one at Erina doesn't stock it (or know anything about it).

Where have you got it from?
How much did it cost?
Who (who lives relatively close to me) can get me some?

Thanks!

There is a store in/near Chatswood called "The Foam Booth"...they have lots of foam products (in case the name was confusing)...

I've gotten some custom cut foam pieces from them but not "pluck foam"...don't know if the stock it or not...sorry I'm not more help...

I think overseas you can order it from a few companies (Orion?)

Seems like only the odd Clark rubber that has any available.

Try ringing all the clark rubber stores.

Apparently they are all franchises so it is up to the individual store to decide what they will stock or not.

I had to ring up 3 stores in Adelaide to eventually find one that had the foam!

They seem to call it Camera case foam.
Our Clark Rubber here had it but they closed their doors a fortnight ago.
