two inch foam in minnesota??? brrrrrr! pass me the ice tea and suntan lotion while i roll over.......... im done on one side. Actually i want two inch foam as well. What is the correct name for this stuff, so i can order some. It always has amused me how angst- driven people become over benchwork!!!!!!! Im from the 'overbuild' school of engineering. However, as age creeps up on me, I am attracted to light weight in large objects! How about a compromise? Say half inch ply, sixteen inch centers one by two l girder with one by two cross joists? Will this pass the sag test? Im thinking of a ten foot module about 30 inches wide...i cant quite shoe-horn enough spur length in eight feet. Of course, the sag of girders is affected by the number and spacing of legs or wall braces employed
