Saw something wild at the Goodwill on Maple Street
I was looking for fabric scraps and found a whole rack of those cheap foam floor mats, the kind for kids. They were marked $5 for a pack of four. Someone had clearly bought them for a cosplay build, cut them up for armor, and then just donated the leftovers. It's a great find if you need light armor pieces, but check the edges because a lot of them were cut really rough. Has anyone else found good base materials in the weirdest store sections?

Oh man, that reminds me of the time I saw a bag of old plastic cutting boards at a garage sale. My brain just went straight to bracers.

My buddy found a whole roll of that thick vinyl flooring underlay at a Habitat Restore last month. Said it was perfect for making sword blades... way cheaper than buying sheets of worbla.
