[Nhcoll-l] Foam cushion for comparative bone collection

[Fabian Neisskenwirth]

Dear Amos,


I would suggest you to look for "ethafoam" (PE foam), its archival an 
comes in different thickness. You might even find different grades of 
density.


If you want the bones to be even more protected from abrasion, you might 
place a piece of archival silk-paper between the foam and the specimens.


All the best,
