As an alternative, rather than use foam padding, I used two layers of leather. I don't particularly like the puffy padded look so the double layer of leather just adds enough spring and pad without looking like a bedhead.......just my opinion. I glued on the first layer and completely cut out the openings of the instruments and then did the pie cuts and wrapped around the final layer. Just be aware that if you use this method you need a glue that sets down flat - either a fine spray or spread it on thin with a flat spatula (like I did) if you have one of those cans that sprays splatty ribbons they will show through the leather.......sorry I dont have a close up detail shot, but I am very pleased with the result.
