Another nagging fellow-puppet-builder-starting-out question; who is your UK supplier for your reticulated foam? At the moment I've been using regular upholstery foam from a custom-cut-foam place.

Hi, I have used this foam in large costume puppets before, and it is great because it is light, holds it's shape and lets air through, I havn't used for my smaller puppets, though have used closed cell foam for more rigid shells, and that is really useful. Thanks for link P & J
