Chapter 2: In which I ditch the foam for something more refined

After about 2 years, I got a new camera, and a few other new odds and ends, and found that the foam insert just didn't cut it any more. I could have made a new foam insert, but I wanted something more flexible, as befitting my constantly-changing equipment, moods, and attitudes. I decided to try my hand at creating customizable, Velcro-equipped, foam inserts for my bag, just like those found in a store-bought camera bag.

After a lot of research on the net, I bought a foam camping pad from WalMart, some cloth from Joann Fabrics, and some two-sided Velcro from Harbor Freight Tools, mixed, stirred, and shook out some inserts that look better than I ever expected.
