best way to cut/shape seat foam

[firko]

One source for the correct density foam is to use a 15 or 20mm yoga mat. You can pick 'em up on eBay or sports shops (maybe even Clarks Rubber) for under $20. You can cut them up and glue them together with spray glue until you get the desired thickness and then use the old electric bread life to shape it like Slakey's done. I haven't seen this particular density rubber in 40mm thickness but it's probably available. This is the desired density foam.

How do you lay foam on the seat pan, when most seat pans are full of undulations and hard edge craters etc  ?

Cutting small pieces of foam and sticking them into each crevice might be time consuming.  Some  pans are like a dam jigsaw puzzle.

Perhaps cutting off the bottom of the original buggered seat foam, and use that as a foundation for the new foam to bond onto.

Who you referring to ?

TBM, I have gone back to view the dribble you wrote and I dont see any reference to my question.
 -  Is there an easy way to to attach new flat foam onto a jagged seat pan ?

Cutting up an old seat foam to use as a base is common sense for anyone. What if you dont have access to an old foam ?

Get off your horse.

I think Les at VMX unlimited used to sell blocks of the right density foam ,ready for carving.

If it's dribble I wrote, why would you bother reading it. And for your information GT, I wasn't referring to anyone in particular. At the time I wrote my "dribble", you hadn't asked about attaching new foam to a jagged seat base. Seeing as you have loads of common sense, why don't you use some of it to figure out how to attach your seat foam to it's base.

This is flucking madness, arguing over seat foam . There's enough negative ions floating around without GT chucking it in over a simple (I'm sure) misunderstanding. Come on back matey.
