Hi - if you're looking for foam rubber you can easily buy it at Clark rubber, either by the metre or as scraps they call "dog bed foam". It cost me $20 for a sheet that will build 3 large puppet heads, about 1 metre by half a metre by half a metre, inch thick. My mouthboards have been cardboard in the past, but I'm currently building a puppet with a softer mouthplate, made of a thin foam I found at a recycling collective.

You can try gasket rubber for the mouth plate. that's what I use. I get them in small sheets in stores like Lowes or Home Depot. I'm not sure if they have stores in australia but any large home store should have them in the plumbing department.
