Below are all the different options for tools (and types of foam) I recommend:
Foam & Craft Glue: [ Ссылка ]
Multi-Function Rasp File: [ Ссылка ]
Cartridge Respirator: [ Ссылка ]
Disposable Respirator Masks: [ Ссылка ]
*****Top Quality Tools for any projects medium to large in size (Precision & Speed):
Hot Foam Cutter Kit (200 W): [ Ссылка ]
Electric Cutting Tool Only (250 W): [ Ссылка ]
14” Bandsaw + Stand (1 HP): [ Ссылка ]
Table Top Bandsaw (2.5 Amp): [ Ссылка ]
*The sections of foam may not fit in a band saw unless you invest/have a free standing larger model. Good insulation foam comes in large sheets that have to be broken or cut with a saw. A table saw will work if you have one, otherwise an electric cutter must be used (150 – 250 W); however, electric cutters DO NOT leave clean straight edges like a saw will. Please watch video in its entirety to understand.
