So I went to Micheal's today and was looking around for some sort of material that I could make the body of my specialty item from. They didn't have any industrial foam (wasn't surprised.. I have no clue where to find that). But I did find regular blocks of Styrofoam.. but then decided that that would become to messy and I'd have to spend even MORE money, buying a cutting device for it. So finally, I rested on regular foam (the kind kids use in art projects). I've decided that I'm going to layer it so it is thicker yet still manageable.
Still not sure yet how I'm going to do the wheels.. although I think I have a plan that would avoid that altogether.
More soon.

My Specialty Item Idea
I think that it would be really cool to use the finger-skateboard toys that came out a few years ago. It would be a cool way to promote a real-life skateboard and biking store. I think I would place a sticker on the bottom of the skateboard that promoted the store.. and then possibly have other stickers that you could either collect or would be given with the finger-skateboard to switch out.
(If you aren't familiar with the finger-skateboards.. here is an example image below.)
