a magnetic parts tray works even better

Things can be thrown on it and they stay put.  Even when its loaded you can 
move it around to get it out of the way with out doing damage.

When finished working, its easily picked up with everything still on it and 
taken back to your bench or tool box.

You would not say that if you ever tried the foam.  I have a mag tray and I
like it, but, the foam is better in a lot of ways.

That's correct, mine came by way of a padding for a shipment I received.

 By dimpled foam do you mean the egg-crate mattress pad stuff?
