It cuts styrofoam up to 4 inches thick.

I think the advantage of these is that it doesn't leave little bits of
foam all over.


I've used hot wire cutters to cut TONS of r/c model airplane parts from
blue, pink, and white foam. Accuracy counted on the parts, and for my
money is the best way to cut the stuff.

Jigs can be built where the wire is following a wood form, if you need
to cut a bunch of identical parts, like letters.

Use proper ventilation when cutting, you're melting plastic.
