New Foam Mattress and Sleeping Beauty

PARADIGM.jpg


Nice Huh? The absolute best foam in the aerospace container industry, Zote LD45, closed cell nonporous inert = AWESOME! This stuff can take a 24 hour bath in brake cleaner, unscathed. The company that did this (OSAAP) is looking to get into the high end protection market for airguns and I got to be one happy guinea pig. My Paradigm is resting peacefullly, ready to wake and commit ruthless pesting atrocities. lol

That looks nice and snug. Everything in its place prim and proper. Plus if you like it and it makes your friends wish you would have had a bed made for their loved one as well then good for you.

Thanks for the dose of envy.

Looks extremely pricey…..any idea of what they’re charging?
It's not going to be cheap. They are not really about value, or looking to sell a lot of so-so junk. They literally make the best stuff going and are not looking to damage their status or reputation by cut throat pricing or manufacturing techniques. If you travel and have big money invested already in your gun, this case will make sense to you, if you don't, than it won't. I don't work for them, I don't know how they are going to work their pricing for individuals but it seems to me that this foam and the CAD/CAM work will easily more than double the price of a premium Pelican/SKB case. It is definitely for people with a want or a need, and a no compromise solution.

I would like, for them, or someone else, to use the half the price, just good, closed cell foam and just do custom cut out liners to swap out of one good case, for different guns, I think that would be handy, and something that I would end up spending a lot on in total, but incrementally. Hopefully, a market someone will exploit. I have a stack of cases and I only ever need one or two at a time. ...just a pipe dream of mine.

Where i got the same form for my DIY case project for my Epic Two, they also had the option for the multi color layer cake foam, but i went with all black.

They also offered custom cutting, but that just add even more to the cost

I paid about 100 USD for the 2 PCS of foam for my case 1000 X 400 mm in size one 50 mm and one 30 mm thick.

A very compact case in my case :D but can not go up in case size ( length at least ) and still be able to fit the case in my trunk.

That is an awesome price! I wonder if you're able to get it so cheap because it's made next door to you? Regardless, I am jealous of how tight that Epic fits into that case. I love folding stocks, for that reason alone. Nice job, and nice gear!
 
I wish i could afford a bigger car, i drive a almost micro JAP 5 door hatchback from Suzuki. 3 CYL -1000 CCM and 70 BHP
This foam is pretty easy to cut yourself, but you of course can not rush it CUZ then everything look bad.

This foam is considered a medium hardness one, which is just fine for everything normal.

Got the foam from a local flight case company, they also carry a lot of pelican cases ASO, but that stuff is way outside the carrying capacity of my pension.
The case i use is actually from a airsoft store, not as tough as the big brand names, but for this purpose i think it is just fine.
