Build up size on limbs and butt

[AIMD]

Hey Rev!

The idea of weight reduction, is to split the larger areas open, cut out a good portion of tpe, leaving only about an inch layer of TPE. Then using paste install four-way stretch mesh, pack the area with foam, before closing the area back up.. To keep the foam from shifting, I was going to cover it, with the stretch mesh and paste it into the liner mesh. Will probably need to put in some anchor stitches, then seal it all back up and re-sculpt that area to cover the modification.

Using a mesh to reinforce areas as well as preventing TPE under tension from splitting seems like a good idea, something that's been mentioned before. Do you think a tulle fabric or fibreglass window screen would work if it was embedded deep enough? They probably wouldn't stretch much but might help distribute some of the tension like rebar does with concrete. And how would this mesh be applied inside an opening? Could it work by making a slit under the surface using a tool like a foam cutter pen or heated knife and then insert the mesh? Could the mesh then be heat impregnated or use a paste instead? Areas that would probably benefit a lot would be elbows and knees, especially since the mesh could act as a stop between the skeleton and TPE.
