I'm looking for a slab about 18 inches square by 6 inches thick. A local supplier wants $54 for two three inch thick pieces that I can glue together to get the desired thickness, or they'll sell me a four foot square x three inches thick for about $150. I use this stuff frequetly however, so It'd be nice to come up with something approaching the utility of expanding foam.
