New Hot Wire Foam Cutter/Cutters



I have recently treated myself to a couple of new tools. Two hot wire foam cutters, the first a hot wire table with additional guide tools and the second a hand-held model with inter-changeable tips or blades.

Both will be needed for a current modelling commission that I am working on (details will be posted on the Blog once I have more information). I am looking forward to playing with these new toys.


My initial plan was to build my own and I have read and watched many You Tube tutorials on building similar tools. However in the end, I thought it was better to purchase a new model/models. Both were purchased via e-bay.

Nice addition, thinking about getting a desktop myself, what make is that one?

Cheers
