Hi all, I am interested in putting together a couple of prototype things for aesthetics with the NSX but do not know where to begin... I want to make a prototype out of a material that is easy to cut/ shave/ form into it... like take a block of a material and whittle it down to what I need.

Example: shift knob... you probably wouldn't start with billet right away, you'd form a cheap material into the shape you want. Not necessarily something pliable, something that you can machine easily with say a Dremel or somthing...

I'm thinking there is something out there like a styrofaom that is easier to work with to get started.

Any tips would be appreciated.
 
try "balsa foam"?
