What did you use to cut it so cleanly?

[RoboProp]

We make foam props like that for shows and parades at Disneyland but we use a closed cell foam product called L-200, available here...

We also coat the prop with a flexible coating called Sculpt-or-Coat so it can take paint easily....

Nice!

Twiztid1234 you could probably stand to get yourself a hot wire foam cutter. They are a very nice tool to have when working on that type of foam.

The sculpt-or-coat is better, but you can also use mod-podge to coat your foam. Or in a real pinch water down some elmer's(pva) glue.

ya i was think of coating the foam at first but i want to make a few traps. but i am working on makeing a slime blower out of foam i found half round dooms 12" made of foam and i will make the long tank part out of foam too buy glueing 2" together to make a long block 12"x12"x how ever long the main tank is. i know its one inch bigger than the real size but if i coat the foam tank with this foam suff it will give it a hard coat on the outside and the slime blower will be very lite to wear
