I have a bunch of extra foam from blocks I cut custom mini trays out of and I can't find anything online about ways to reuse it. Any ideas? It's all charcoal foam.

Line Tupperware with it for superheavies or awkward models that don't come out too often.
It glues wel enough for infrequent use with copydex or pva at a push.

I use scraps of foam to transport anything I don’t have custom foam for. So right now, that’s my entire eldar army and my stormraven. I bought a big pluck foam case years ago and plucked if for WHFB cavalry. Not very useful for 40k. So whenever I needed to move anything that wasn’t infantry, each tank was nestled in a little pocket of scraps. It was time consuming to make a nest for everyone, every time, but it worked well.

Put it in a shallow dish with a little water for controllable sculpting lube.

I'm sooo, sooo sorry.
