Its for a head board for a bed. It will be 1 to 2 inches thick. The
same type they use for chairs and mats for sleeping bags. On Jan 28, 11:02 am, "Joseph Meehan" wrote: bdeditch wrote: Whats the best way to attach foam to a sheet of plywood.

You want a padded headboad to soften the impacts during rough sex, hehe. What you might prefer is an upholstered head board. Every city has someone who does upholstery and would love to build what you want. That way you will have something that looks nice and also serves the function desired. |
