It works very good and the noodles can be re-used many times. Is similar to using straight tree logs for rolling a heavy object like a granite block weighing a ton. Foam noodles would probably work with something weighing 500-lbs like positioning an empty hot tub into place.

If only foam noodles were available at the time they could have made it much easier for the ancient Egyptians to build their great pyramids .....
So, no personal experience with “battleship grey” noodles?
