I know some of you folks already do something similar, but this is what I'm trying out. Using 1/2" thick, 3/4" wide weatherstrip, length wise on the outer piece of the forearm. I'll find out soon if I like this, I already can expect to have to replace the weatherstrip sometimes, but a 10' roll is just under $3.

I scrapped this idea, although it might work better with thinner foam. I found it better to put a bit of foam on the inside forearm, up near the inside elbow area. Having the foam on the outside piece, was just not feeling comfortable. Like trooping is actually 'comfortable'
