Ahh crap! just found it...build it yourself section, even on the first page...who would of thought Not to long ago i remember a topic that had a bunch of pics and went into detail about cutting case foam. Anyone remember or can shoot me in the right direction? Just got my pelican 1750. Thanks |

I simply used a slide blade on mine. The hardest part was keeping the blade perpendicular to the foam. I also switched blades several times during the process to make sure it stayed sharp. The spots that look boogered up were cut after I had glued the layers together and realized I had to make the cut one layer deeper.

I read this somewhere else....I don't know if it really works, but sounds logical, and might help. It was recommended to place the sheet(s) of foam into the freezer for several hours to help make it stiffer/easier to cut. Like I said, it sounds reasonable, but I've never tried it.... |
IMHO closed cell foam is already stiff enough...for open cell it would sure help. |
MadDog, Would you be kind enough to provide a link for the Hot wire Table? |
Here is one: hotwirefoamfactory.com/product.php?productid=16140&cat=3&page=1 or www.minicrafttools.com/37080.html |
Yeah, and it's a hundred plus bucks and good luck figuring out the programs. I know I couldn't. |
