ok so lots of people say to use fomies for turnbuckles. My question is when you bend the fomie it tends to want to straighten it self out, the rounder you bend it (making a better looking turnbuckle) the worse it is. I have used super glue and velcro and neither works.
any advice or better yet a good recipe would be great
thanks!

I wouldn't use foamies but i would use normal foam (can get it out of old lazy boy chairs or pretty much any furniture). and it is thick so it would resemble a turnbuckle quite well imo.

Yea this guy is going to go cut open a lazu boy chair to make a custom ring that makes sense to answer your quest for turn buckes i would either use foamies or just shop around walmart to look for somehting that might work good.

Foamies work great. cut two small sqaures of each piece of velcro and put one in each corner of the pad, fold over turnbuckle and it holds fine.
