FROGBlog - 3D Foam Carving Central

When fans of 3D foam carving get excited, they're usually talking about their end products or the technologies they're using to get to the end product.  But where's the love for the actual raw material that forms the basis of any foam carving project? In the spirit of bringing recognition to this oft forgotten material, we're always on the lookout for new and improved foam products. To that end, we've been experimenting with vegetables - seriously. We got our hands on a soy-based foam product that's not only environmentally friendly, but that does a pretty good job when it comes to 3D milling. We took a relief file and tried out this new foam with some pretty good results (see below).  What's more, the product is edible. One of our techs took one for the team and tried it out. The result? Uhhhh, not so good.
