Looks to be the same as Balsa Foam. Looks pretty handy too.

Yes I have tried it! I got my samples in the mail and made this right off....



I then ordered 2 sheet of the 2 sizes they offer. I havent done anything with it as of yet, but I know I have it! Its one of thoes materials that fits the catagory well when you dont know what else to use. My main reason for getting it was for details on buildings. I got some 1/8in foamboard but taskboard is better cuz you dont have to deal with the edges. Tb is very easy to cut, and glues well. Did you see that you can steam it to bend it!?!? I was also able to scribe the detail in easily. My only complaint is that the surface is a little fuzzy due to it being a paper pulp product. A little light sanding and some primer took care of most of that though. -D
