The company in Arkansas had blocks of foam that were 10’ square and ran though a large band saw to cut to size.  A king size foam mattress may have $100-200 dollars worth of foam depending on the foam rating and density.  And for the group’s information, there is an HR rated foam that will last longer than 20 years.  I have the HR foam in my sofa cushions that I built in 1990 and the foam is still in great condition with no sagging or corner rounding.</blockquote>
