Subject: Re: PUPT: A little help foam and wigs


I'm not sure if anyone responded to this (my computer was offline for about a week and I'm catching up on email) but a wedge pattern would probably do the trick. To make pattern a perfect sphere out of foam you usually cut 8 wedges where the ratio of the height of the wedge to its width is 4:1. By varying the ratio of length to width and/or the number of wedges used you can create almost any sort of round shape.

I have a little more info on this at http://www.bear-town.com/backstage_pages/tumbles_pg1.htm

I hope that helps!
