Eyepiece Case Revamp

[pbyrne]

Hi all

 

My eyepiece case foam had degraded to such a state that it was a mess and frankly, embarrassing. 

 

It was time to do something.  I ordered some replacement foam, 5 layers, 16mm depth to each layer, that way I needed to only cut the layers I needed.  The pluck foam is fine for regular shapes, squares, rectangles, etc, eyepieces are not of a regular shaped.  Using a sharp blade I carefully cut out the shapes.  I had to work around the pieces, the foam is black and I had no pen to draw out the shapes, a Tippex pen would have been ideal, but I didn't have one.  

The result is one I am happy with.  As you can see, it is a little rough around the 18mm and 11mm, I can live with this.
