Electric knife good for cutting foam rubber.

Many years ago, there was a Health and Safety poster discouraging the
use of a screwdriver to open a tin of paint. They didn't suggest a

I prefer paint scrapers, with a wider blade they're less likely to
bend the lid, and can thus apply more opening force.


Surely a tin opener, or an angle grinder?
