Hi-lo foamies

[Kaida]

This might become my dumping ground for my build.

Anybody build their foamie with Insulfoam?

I'm planning to build a hi-lo foamie similar to the build below. Could Insulfoam R-7.7 2" thickness work for the bottom walls? Or would Owen Cornings Foamular NGX F-250 R-10 2" thickness be better?

Insulfoam is expanded foam (XPS, think white beaded foam). Foamular is extruded foam (EPS) and is much better for structural uses. It's denser and stronger.

XPS is great for filling voids in skeletonized plywood or stick built hollow panels. Neither depends on foam for strength or compression resistance.

For my foamie Hi Lo, I used 2" EPS, Type 2 with fiberglass. You can see my build here:
