Dang it all, Shawn!! That is such a cool idea, now I have no choice but to build a sit on top using the methods in that link. Can't you guys leave me alone? ;^)

Does anyone know of a mail or online supplier for blocks of foam like that? Or would it be available at lumber yards? I know I've never seen anything like that.
