I started making my own winter clothes a couple of years back and ran across a guy named Jim Phillips (inventor of PALS arctic clothing) who used open-cell polyeurothane foam exclusively for insulating, which works awesome, as it dry's very quickly. I was thinking about shredding up some old foam scraps (very soft) and using that instead of down, for an underquilt; anyone know someone who has done something similar? (I recently made some -40 degree boots with the foam for about 30 bucks, so why not for the hammock?)
