A word about the foam

In the UK getting sheets of XPS foam thicker than 5 mm is, to say the least difficult.  We can not just pop down to the local DIY store like our friends in the US, Canada and Sweden, we have to order ours on line and most suppliers only sell this in bulk or we can order small sheets of Blue Foam (which is now grey).  The blue foam is quite fibrous along some of the sides which can be a bane or a boon depending on how you want to texture it, however it does have the advantage of being able to hold indentations really well, which was great for my curtain texture.

I have recently found a few suppliers where you can buy single large (1200 x 1200 mm) sheets in an a assortment of thicknesses although I have not yet tried these out but will be buying from them when I come to build my Carnnevale board.
