@gen What's the difference between a foam cutter and something like a utilty or carpet knife? Not trying to be a dick, I'm actually curious.


A foam cutter uses a hot wire. It looks like a band or powered scroll saw with a heated metal wire passing through a work table. You lie the foam on the table, normally press a foot pedal to heat/juice the wire, and trace your pattern through the foam by moving it to follow the pattern.
