Building a Foam pit

[jack_weisman]

does anyone know what kind of blocks that are used in foam pits, also do those blocks come recycled and what is the density

very very expensive foam. a foam pit costs at least 5 grand..

 

[pocket-rocket]

If I was to do one, and throw myself in it from 20 ft, I would just go check a place with one, and ask questions, rather than ask a bunch of kids on a website. just my 2 cents

 

[triebby]

yea ive looked into doin them before, and just the foam alone is super expensive. like easily thousands.

i have one and im in ny, i just need to fill it, its 550 for 500 blocks

The blocks are expensive. you can get them off ebay sometimes and buy them by the block. I saw them for 1$ each once, but to have enough would be a few grand. Just cut up old couch cushions, etc.

 

[jack_weisman]

do you purchase recycled foam or new foam

 

[jea_killa]

get that foam they package stuff with. I never imagened that foam could be that expensive.

 

[bigwhite.steeze]

packing pellets?are you shitting me?no...just no...

and for the amount you would need, foam blocks would most likely be cheaper

 

[jea_killa]

no those long slabs of foam with the bumps on them

go to your local junkyard and pull all of the foam out of old car seats, chairs, and couches.

exactly just make sure you dont have the springs still in the seat cushions

 

[PeteyG]

very true. that would defeat the purpose of a foam pit which is having a comfortable landiong lol

You can sink and suffocate in peanuts, then you will be in the darwin awards.

 

[philipc]

nooooooo get the fuck outta here!!

 

[DFA79]

You could always dig a hole and have e{heath} lie down in it

 

[PeteyG]

Its called sarcasm

 

[Aclique_Clothing]

o shit!

 

[DDrem.]

if you do do it (lol do-do), dont worrry about cost cuz you can just charge admission to use it. you know that kids would line up to use it and pay substantial cheddar

 

[Wis_Skier_23]

before you put foam in it make sure you have something to cover it
