Hi All,

Thanks Don and Darren. I knew the pros would come
through! :)

That is perfect.

Now what would you folks use to pad the bottom of the
hockey puck style cubes (to display flatter
specimens)?

Is there a place that sells little foam squares or
that fiber-matt material in pre-cut pieces, or do
you have to buy a big roll of it and cut it down?

I want to line the bottom of the hockey-puck style
cases with something to hold the specimen against the
lid and keep it stationary - like a bigger version of
a gem jar. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

MikeG
