I bought my Longshot CS-6, ordered the OMW Stage 1 and 2 kits for it, downloaded modding tutorials, and I'm pretty much ready to mod it (remove the AR, put in a 8kg spring, etc.), however I have come upon a small problem; I don't know what to pad the plunger head with. I have heard (and its said in the OMW guide) that craft foam is the best thing to use. I have some at home, however I don't know if its thich enough. The guys in the guide used 5mm foam, and I have some thats about 2mm thick. I could stack the foam, however I am afraid that if I put glue in between the pieces, it will soak up into the foam and then harden, making the foam pieces useless. And I don't want to drive to a craft store just for a small circle of 5mm thick crafting foam.

Alternatively, I found a Mega Dart on the street the other day, and as I don't have any Mega nerf blasters, I could slice off foam rings from the dart. However, I don't know if this is a good approach. And if I'm to use this method, how thick should I make the circles? (I have heard that making them too thick will cause loading problems and making them too thin would not cushion the impact enough)

I would post this under the Questions and Answers category, however it doesn't let me for some reason and instead of publishing the post it redirects me to a page called "Undefined" (which has been marked as deleted)
