Foamwerks straight/bevel cutter
I used to cut 45 degree bevels by hand and eye, but not anymore since I bought one of these little gadgets. Just over eight quid from America, it cuts perfect 90 degree right angles or 45 degree bevels in foam with ease and grace and most importantly, safety.

This is a pretty cool tool. I checked their website and they have lots of interesting tools for foam. Oddly enough, they sell them in the same building I work in...I wonder if I will get as good a price as you.
ReplyDeleteThe same item here in the UK is at least twice the US price, plus postage.
ReplyDeleteYou can make a cutting board with scrap lengths of foamboard so that the blade can run off the piece being cut without the tool dropping down off the work piece. There are videos on YouTube showing what I mean.
A little mod I make is to temporarily d/s tape a short length of foamboard to the underside to allow me to trim square cut foam building sides to 90 degree bevels by lifting the whole tool up to the height of the piece being trimmed.
