Styro cutter - Styrofoam slicing wand - Foam cutter

These things are so neat! There are a number of them on Amazon so I don't want to link to one in particular. A lot of them look exactly like this one too.

Just an fyi, the styrofoam is not absorbing the heat. Its actually sticking to the wand, and preventing air from getting to it, so it cools down. I have one of these, and have done several controlled experiments with it. The longer you cut, the more build up gets on the wand, the slower it cuts. When you remove it from the foam, it burns the residue off, heating up again to operating temperature.

Thank you for talking us through this instead of just playing dorky music.

Legend has it, that piece is still dangling at the end of the wand, to this day.

Great demo on how good the styrocutter can be. Thanks! I will definitely buy one. =)

Can you bend the wire thing?
Like it doesn't have something bittle inside to keep it red hot

[coldrider]

i realise this is an old video, i am wondering if i could bend the element into an arc ? would it work ? looking to buy two and modd them to my needs, thanks for the knowledge

[JuliaTheSun]

[WhatWillHappenIf]

Cool video and it also able to cut bottle as well. ☺

Hi. I saw your video too late and... trying to disassemble it, I already broke my polystyrene cutter. Can you please tell me how to fix it? The positive wire is still perfectly in its place but the "ground" wire is free in the handle without any connection and I do not know where it is necessary to attach it. Thank you.

I was also confused about how the really thin soldering iron tip i bought was able to heat and turned out to have the Positive wire inside aswell wrapped in fibreglass insulated cord xD

Do you know if it cuts foam? Like the one inside the Pelican cases ...?

[jesusblessings]

Can I cut furniture foam with this pen

[PA-gtdd]

it drove me absolutely NITS that you never pulled that stuck piece off...I was like WHY DOESNT HE PULL IT OFF???@?@?@?@?@@!!!

[am-hmoz]

um maybe prepare beforehand or edit out the parts that dont go so well? haha

I have one of these wands and I love it, but it's quit working. Because I'm recklessly fearless, I took it apart and found that one of the wires had come apart. Almost looks like it got too hot. My problem now is I don't know where to reconnect the wire. The one still connected goes into the gold receptacle and there's a hole in the side of that. Does the wire go into the same hole with the attached wire, or does it go into the hole? Do I need to take that gold piece apart to repair it? I'm afraid to do anything else with it, although it couldn't hurt anything because it doesn't work anyway. Can you help me out with this? Thanks so much.

I got the same one and it burned the foam all around, I absolutely hate it.

[richardhathaway]

I have one of these. I find it is JUST able to cut through a 50mm slab of foam if you apply a little constant pressure and a lot of patience. My feeling is that the power supply that came with the tool (Rated at 6V 2.5A) is barely adequate. The 2.5A is a joke. I'm sure a tiny bit more power would fix the problem. Maybe a power supply that actually delivers what it is rated at?

[luizgonzaga]

Hi friend, nice video, a question, what power supply do I use, thanks

I only need to cut like a 4 inch by 2inch Collums I tried it with a pice of sheet metal but it didn't come right
