Pool noodles

Today, as I floated around on a noodle in my aunt's pool, I had an epiphany: pool noodles could be EXCELLENT tying material. I typically use craft foam from Walmart, and I like it well enough. That foam is vastly different than pool noodles, however. Pool noodle foam is very light and airy and floats really well.

Who has tied with pool noodle before? I'm going to destroy one and attempt to use it at the vise.

Just make sure it is fished on bamboo. Could become a classic.

I messed with them, but didn't particularly like the material. It's hard to shape and tough to make a cup face. You're really limited to punching out cylinders. I can do a lot more with 3 mm and 6 mm craft foam.
