Two things work great for any spongy foam; bands saws and electric
turkey carving knives. Both will be ruined for anything else, but
will
still cut foam great after they have been dulled.


See comment above, it is a special band saw blade designed
specifically for foam.

Sort of reminds me of a meat saw blade.

Stand wood/metal cutting blades won't do the job very long.

Any furniture people in your area?

If so, there will be some foam fabrication shops near by who could
help you find the right blade.

I got that part. I've seen them at a big case building company in
Columbus, OH. If I had to guess, I would say what makes them "special"
is that they are simply dull, with straight teeth as opposed to bent.

But I'm not looking. I already have plenty of dull blades around the
shop. :-)
