Yeah, but the foam is still a petrolium product that can off gas stuff that might harm the metal, better to go with normal fillings like cotton or similar

Traditionally, only select untreated woods like mahogany and acid-free paper and felt are used.

Ah, that makes sense, it was sort of what I was worried about after mentioning foam.

Though my point still stands, the case needs more padding between the compartments and the lid.
