I found this great tutorial thread on AR-15.com and I couldn't resist on building one. Heres the link to the thread.
Cutting Gun Case Foam (lots of photos) - Page 1 - AR15.COM
This was the first attempt using a utility knife using that Pluck and Chuck Foam that comes standard with Pelican Cases.
It didn't turn out the way I wanted it, cutting the foam with the knife made uneven cuts and just didn't hold the lines right.
So here is my sunday project that took around 2 hours and about $30 of my hard earned money.
I'm currently waiting for my Ni-Chrome Wire to come in the mail, also my foam that I ordered. I ended up going with closed cell Polyethylene Foam. My end goal is something that looks like this.
Not Mine
The Pelican 1550 is perfect for double stacking guns like this, its very deep!
Also depending how this project turns out, I'm looking into doing this for some side cash, do you think there is a market out there for this?
What do you think?
