Custom sizes available. Pricing is the same as the next standard size up. We will cut rectangular cuts for free and also ship you the leftovers. Place the order for the next size up and email me a note with the required custom size. Note that for example 32×12″ can be cut from two 19.5×13″ sheets.
Note that all sheets are flat cuts unless it is specifically mentioned that they are waffle or ridge cuts. Foam sheets shipped folded will recover their shape when placed flat for a day or two.
