Step 2: Cut foam noodle
Most foam noodles come with a cylindrical opening in the centre that runs the entire length of the noodle, perfect for a dowel of the right size. Measure the length of the foam you will need to cover the dowel, leaving room for a handle and a little extra foam at the top to protect the top of the dowel.
If unsure cut a longer portion of foam than required and trim off excess as desired.
Pool noodle is a funny name.But since noodles aren't hollow, these should really be called foam bucatini. But I digress. Where was I? Ahh yes, cutting the foam. Cut foam to length and insert dowel, there should be enough friction between the dowel and the foam to hold it in place. If not, use a liberal amount of hot glue to secure the dowel in place.
