M10 Lobster Padding
Posted: Wed Dec 10, 2025 6:40 am
After reading Jades amazing hero build guide, I decided to add some information regarding the lobster padding.
These are my thoughts with a lot of help from James Forder from Caramac’s Prop Shop.
Currently we all use the Dutch Army padding.
It’s close, readily available but not accurate.
It’s going to be impossible to find the exact padding unless an exercise mat from the 80’s is found.
Working closely with James we tried various shades of colour and thicknesses of exercise mats.
We found a close match and James perfected laser burning the grooves into the mat.
As accurate as possible.
I’ll attach some screen used pics and the new Caramacs padding for comparison.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Information etc.
