This is an odd query but I'll try to explain where it's coming from. I am looking for a way to create a material (or find retail) kinda like styrofoam but crushable like a dried mud ball. Weird, huh? If anyone is a Star Trek fan and remembers the episode with the Kelvens who turned people into crystalline "cubes" -- actually cubes with their corners hacked off--that's what I'm trying to re-create. They were white, seem to have started as 4" cubes, and looked rather like sponges but they crumbled when you squeezed.
So that's it. Quite a challenge, I think, but you just never know who's got the knowledge you need. Thanks, all!
