Thread: Oh Font Of All Foam Knowledge

    Oh Font Of All Foam Knowledge

    I've never previously used the collective knowledge of CCMB before so here goes ..

    I've purchased a case for a small piece of electronic equipment and I need a piece of precision cut foam to complete the jigsaw.

    Can anybody recommend somewhere local who can do it?

    When I was a kid I thought that local anaesthetic came from the immediate locality - and that the soil purchased purchased by my father to put on the garden came from the turf accountant.

    Just go though your spreadsheet list, you must have left it somewhere

    Gluey do you know anything about cd players?



    Inside my cdj the cd player looks a bit like that ^ one, it's a separate unit that just plugs in, you can't get them any more, do you reckon a different one would play?

    Foam shop Whitchurch Road

    There used to be a place called the foam shop on a side street off Whitchurd Road - not far from those 2 sports shops - it was on the heath hospital side of the road.

    They cut foam - as you would expect a foam shop to do....

    Re: Foam shop Whitchurch Road

    There's a pub called The Foam Inn.


    It's on the River Severn somewhere, but I'm not sure where. Anyone know ?

    I had the same idea (great minds and all that ) I was going to try the one I have in an old pc just to see if it would play but I haven't taken it apart yet, I don't really have much hope of it working properly as I need the pitch control to work too, thanks anyway though.

    Digital audio is all 0's and 1's, the pitch control won't be implemented in the CD player.

    The audio stream will be fed into a buffer and then an algorithm will be applied to the data.
