Arrgh, I am weeks behind on my blogging responsibilities! I’m going to try and catch up in a hurry this week, so expect a bunch of posts as I wade through the back log. of blog. something about logs.<\/p>\n

Where was I? Ah, the foam insulators. Steve was already kind enough to post a video here<\/a> of the magical expanding action, but there were some other details that are worth sharing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Although the open cell Icynine foam is reportedly non-toxic, and is partially derived from wholesome veggie sources like castor beans, the guy who does the spraying every day wears a pretty intense protective getup.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Actually, the whole scene is kind of post-apocalyptic, as the 2nd guy on the crew trims the rapidly-expanded gloop with a giant sword-saw.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

He just slices it right off!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Post slice, up to the edge of the rafters. This is now conditioned, indoor space!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

They generated several huge bags of waste foamy bits. Here the spray guy takes a little nap on the foam bag while the other guys refill the squirter with giant drums of chemicals.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The sword.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The helmet. Notice the foamy bits – it sticks to everything and doesn’t come off easily. The guys warned me not to get to close or I’d get it on my glasses.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Some closeups of the hardened foam. It’s really wild looking stuff, like frosting on a cake or something.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Oh no, the foam is exploding out of the cracks in the walls!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
