Just when I thought I had things figured I came across NIDA core. Would this be a suitable core for a one off hood or should I just stick with Nomex. It is quite a bit cheaper and only slightly heavier than the Nomex but will it conform to the gentle curves of a hood? Herman stated in another thread that it has a lower shear modulus but I don’t know if this would be an issue on something like a hood. I was looking at either 1/2" Nomex which I think is a little overkill or 10mm NIDA. Any thoughts or experience with it? Thanks for the help.
