What would you want to cut foam with a device that is made to run HO Gauge trains. I could only see problems with using this device for that reason. DON'T DO IT !

you can, but i found a local company that makes foam and saved a bit of money buying it from them and cutting it myself.

I've not used it for poly foam but I can tell you the saw makes clean cuts with melamine-coated particle board. I am using a DeWalt portable saw.

No. The blade is exposed only about 1/8". It cuts a great circle on the foam board, just not all the way through.

If it's a foam that responds to heat, I believe it will. I've used it on several different types and it cuts great!

You can cut any foam with a bread knife but you would hafta carefully re sew the cover back together afterward. Snap a chalk line on foam to keep cut straight. Good luck

I just tested it on some 1/8" foam and 1/4" foam and it worked fine. Keep the blade sharp to prevent material from sliding and you should be fine, Just a heads up - this does not come with extra blades so you may want to consider ordering them at the same time.

I suppose it could be. I believe that it would be best to do it with a very sharp knife. I have trimmed foam for a camper seats using a sharp knife

I guess it could, very good quality foam, I cut mine with an electric knife and it took time because of the quality but the foam holds up extremely well.

I think it would cut the thin craft foam but not sure about adhesive foam. I have never attempted it. There is a Yahoo forum about the Pazzles Inspiration. I'm sure someone on there would be able to answer this question.

Sure. And what works best IMHO is an electric carving knife. Cutting foam with those is the only reason I keep one around.

Yes, it is thick foam. I trimmed mine as well. It is long enough for a big bed, but is easy to cut down. Best thing I ever did for sleeping.

I would say no because it works with a foaming action, and it,s probably cut with water that will evaporate

Yes, it comes with an attachment that is very similar to an Xacto knife, but hot. It would do excellent at cutting through foam board

My laminate was about 8 mm including the foam, so probably more like 6.5 mm only. It cut the boards just fine. That being said, remember that this is somewhat of a brute-force replacement tool for a table saw. For visually exposed precision cuts, such as threads on a staircase, I used fine carbide-tip table saw blades. All other cuts the laminate cutter was perfectly adequate for - yes, there's very minor chipping of the laminate layer (up to about 1-2 mm from the cut line) but nothing that won't get covered up by baseboards later, anyway.

I've only used it on foam-core board but it does slice cleanly through all the layers and slice into the mat board I use to prevent the wood support from being marred. It is easy to use with a straight rail that is anchored somehow. The foam-core I use for model building. I would expect you to go through blades fairly fast but that happens any time you want super-crisp cuts with thin blades.

Never used it to make foam but says its good for temps up to 120. Makes great whipped cream though :)
