Thanks Deeks, the foam looks good. I'll keep hunting for veneer but i might just end up with ply.

Hey Thonas - youo're in Vic, right? Melbourne somewhere hopefully... I found a place in Bentleigh East where you can get Extruded Polystyrene foam (perfect for making moulds) if that's what you are after? https://secure.solidsolutions.com.au/view_products.php?cat=65
Veneers are a harder ask in the southern states - you can try 1.5mm ply - the behaviour of the thin ply's is compaprable to veneer - Plyco are good (Mornington and Fairfield) http://www.plyco.com.au/index.php?main_page=index

Does anyone know of any places to get various veneers and f250 (molding) foam for a press?
