How could anyone in their right mind give this FREE tutorial a thumbs down?? Cheery music music followed by some creative improv instrumentation, excellent camera work with the added drama of those still shots, and of course an excellent solution to a diy problem everyone will have to deal with at least once in their lifetime. What more could ya want? Thanks brother! Loved it!!

Just came across this channel this evening and I gotta say, Bravo! By far, the best tutorial on a diy foam cutter, simple and clear instructions. You can bet I will be making one for my crafting and costume making. Thank you for sharing!

You can make nichrome wire of any length, but the longer the nichrome, the more VOLTAGE you need for the same temperature. And you need more tension (in kg) with a greater length of nichrome. I indicated the current and voltage for 30 centimeters from nichrome with a diameter of 0.3 mm. For nichrome 0.3 mm long 30 cm voltage 8-10 volts, current 2-2.5 amperes, tension of nichrome 1.5-2 kg - 7:35 0.3 mm nichrome - aliexpress.com/item/1-10-0-3/32955677238.html My power supply KPS605D 60V, 5A (300W) - aliexpress.com/item/wanptek-mini-switching-DC-power-supply-KPS605D-60V-5A-Single-Channel-adjustable-SMPS-Digital-0-60V/32804367095.html Remember! 1.

Hi Looking to make a table that is 600mm of 0.3nichrome, what is the energy output? do you have an English link? I cant read Russian ;)

Hi, do you have a link to a calculator for this sort of thing. I need the length to be 28cm and the Nichrome wire I have is 28g.

Interesting way to produce uniform thicknesses and with none of the waviness caused by cutting or by a moving wire. Great for small production cutting - the hot-wire version of a table saw. Well done.

Very good work! 👏 👍 I made one about six months ago which is 20" wide. Today I built a "mini cutter" which is 10" wide and I did finally break down and purchased a variable voltage power supply.

When I was a kid back in the mid 60s, I got a toy very much like this for Christmas. It was a bare wire about 6 inches long, strung upright with a base that made it look a lot like a band saw. It came with several sheets of foam with printed lines for various parts of a car, plane and house. I burnt the crap out of my fingers playing with that thing. Great fun back when part of the fun of toys was that they could be dangerous!

Thanks for a great easy to follow video clip with no waffle talking just plain visuals and as a bonus in kilograms for the rest of the civilized world like us here in Australia . Congratulations 110%

Great presentation video for the ambitious DIY'er that can afford the current transformer and doesn't require precise measurement in the cuts. However, for all the trouble it takes to make one, I think it makes much more sense to spend slightly over $100 for the exact same thing (with easier adjustments, graduated boards, etc.) from Amazon. I remember using these almost 30 years ago for polystyrene foam cutting - worked at a special events company that had a lot of props, centerpieces, etc. that were made from polystyrene. This most definitely is THE best way for cutting materials like these with little muss or fuss.

But is it really about the tool or the ingenuity??

Came for the foam. Stayed for the concert. (Awesome build, by the way.)

Well done! This video shows us all that's needed in a simple, straightforward & easily understood manner. I used a scaled-up version of this tool when fabricating foam insulated doors for walk-in coolers and freezers many years ago. Cutting 3-inch foam at an angle on a table saw was messy and dangerous and the heated wire method saved the day. I've wanted to build one of my own on several occasions, but never had a good idea of how to go about it. Many sincere thanks for showing me!

@GRBtutorials

3 жыл бұрын

Carsan Mario Odds are they’re too thick for the current you’re passing through them (the filament bulb will limit the current). You could try increasing the current (removing the light bulb and using an appropriate power supply), but you’ll need a lot of current for a guitar string. Try with 0.3mm nichrome or Kanthal wire (as in the video), which can be bought or extracted from heating coils.

I just built one following your video! There are some slight changes since I didn't have all the tools but it works great. Thanks for uploading this, it really helped me out.

Back again ... I couldn't pass up the opportunity to point out that the horizontal wire set-up in this video can easily be reconfigured as a yoke with a vertical wire to do scroll work. For that matter, it seems like we should be able to rig up a hand-held holder for the wire to do free-form carving ... the fusilage for a foam glider perhaps. The idea lends itself to lots of applications. Anyway, thanks again. You definitely get a hearty like and subscription!

Yes, cutting a finished wing for a glider is a good idea and is used by glider model builders.

Great demonstration. I always put together a cutter in the same principle when I had to cut some styrofoam. But I made it so that I could move it freehanded like a handsaw.

@grain8314

Yes, there is such a design in the form of a stretched bow. For cutting the outline of the template this option is probably better. I know that model fans cut out the profile for the wings of the glider in this way.

Excellent machine very powerful, congratulations my friend, one day I going to make one

Great tutorial. The jig is nice and simple, yet does everything you need. I'm definitely going to build one. With the ability to re-cut polystyrene form into clean useful shapes it has endless uses in hobby projects and even home renovation if you can get enough of the stuff. If you want to glue together polystyrene foam then the easiest and cheapest is to use PVA glue (ie. wood glue, but it is also used in many crafting and "childrens glues" due to its non-toxicity, so you probably already have some at home). It's safe, cheap and cleans up with water (before hardening). Note that the white wood glue that dries clear is not waterproof, so for weather-resistant projects go with the (uglier) yellow variants which tolerate water much better.

I muted the music and played my own. ;) Thank you very much for doing this video, this is exactly what I was looking for.

You did a good job - especially the construct of the shades 4 the roundings ! To make the manufacturing more healthy : Put it to an open window, set a vent that takes the smoke to the opening. That will work….Go on with your videos

Thanks for the inspiration! I made one and comes in very handy for slicing, however my musical skills suck.

Love this! Not sure if recommendations are acceptable however watching this I can see that building this for vertical (more intricate) cutting would be a great pt2

A table "jig" cutter. Mark the table where you want the wire to go vertical. Make a hole through the table at that point. Use an eyebolt positioned beneath the surface of the table as the fixed electrical connection and wire anchor. Add a vertical board to the edge of the table. At the top of the vertical board add a cross member. Use an eyebolt for the second wire support and the electrical terminal. Position the spring support on the underside of the vertical board. For straight cuts use a clamped edge guide.

As always nice and detailed explanation Thank you & good job sir

Back in the mid 1960's my dad and I cut Polystyrene Foam Wings cores for model airplanes then we covered them with 1/16 balsa wood glued on using two part epoxy. We also covered some of the with poster board and contact cement, both both techniques worked great to make fast building and inexpensive wings.

Very informative and I loved the soundtrack. The music that is not the other sounds you emphasized. Maybe your next video you could instruct us as to how to run your fingernails down a chalkboard.

Info at 7:36 is exactly what i was looking for! Thanks!

All I needed to know! Thanks. Subscribed :0)

The thumb-pushing technique is a easy way to get a deep burn acoross the pad of your thumb. A pusher stick and some vertical drag guides to hold the panel down will make for flatter cut surfaces. You want to make cuts pushing the stock against the "upstream" side of the wire. The wire will be better retained if there was a smoother surface to slide across than the root of a machine screw's thread. A hollow brass rivet can be cut to make a smooth collar with a flange. Nyloc nuts hold their positions better than wire-supporting machine nuts and would help to maintain the set heights of the wire ends.

Very clever and I like the up cycle use of old polystyrene for pipe lagging ;-)

I did this on a bigger scale to cut foam for a barge I built. Used 120v house current reduced with a standard light dimmer switch. Learning curve. Start low and turn temp up. I started to hot and melted the wire in about two seconds but the dimmer worked really good. Cutting 48 inch foam.

Does styrofoam damage the camera? I think not at all. Just the pores are closed when cutting with temperature. But the foam from this becomes hard on top, it is still better to stick fabric or leather on top, the more aesthetically pleasing it is.

Impressive Camera work.....very nice....Use a freehand Bow for cutting exotic curves though, and keep this device for making flat sheets.
