Watching you cut the foam is very satisfying

I've had a lot of trouble working with that first foam you used (the really soft one). I bought like 4 different knives, and even tried a surgical knife and I still couldn't cut it well. This video helped me so much! Thanks :)

The softer the foam the harder it is to cut for sure!! We also struggle with soft foam sometimes XD i'm really glad that this helped a bit! :3

So, these "tips" go far beyond cosplay, these are helpful in engineering foam solutions, shoe manufacturing, toys, building products, other consumer products so on. This is huge, because this has a tremendous amount of knowledge in a short 5 minute video. Like seriously... engineers and manufacturing facilities would pay good money to learn this stuff. THANK YOU!!!

thank you SO much for these tips!! I am still intimidated by foam for some odd reason even though I've seen a ton of tutorials about using it and have used it in the past! hope to make some really cool armor one day that looks as clean as the work you guys do!

I was intimidated too! I just started a project to make Link's Hylian shield. Rather than start with a large project/full kit, I realized making a cool prop would be a good start. I'm making mistakes, but foam is actually pretty accommodating...and...the best part: I'm learning. 😊

I have been using EVA for custom shelving in my cube organizers. One tip I can offer if you mess up a cut and end up with jagged lines or angles on your edges is to use a combination of soft sanding brushes (not the drum sanders!) and rubber or wool polishing tips with a Dremel at 15000rpm. The sanding brush will cleanly sand the edge with much better precision than the drum sanders since it's a mesh fiber. And the rubber polishing tip will friction melt large abnormalities, while the wool polishing tip will friction melt smaller ones. This takes a few seconds, but it allows you to fix messed up cuts and conserve materials.

1:10 I thought this was going to be the dull cut at first. A little tip I can provide here is when starting the cut don't just drag it through like it's shown here. You're damaging the beginning of the cut. Instead saw into the very edge to get it started then pull it through.

3:18 use a stone bit for sanding and it will be much cleaner. If you need to remove a lot of material quickly, cut it off with a blade then refine it with a stone sanding bit, not a sand paper one.

You can use acrylic paint and mix in a bit of flexible primer like flexbond or hexflex, you can also mix fabric medium into the paint to keep if flexible :3 if you want to you can also invest in a cheap airbrush and compressor. They are fantastic for painting too if you plan on doing it a lot!

I used to use hot glue to glue my armors pieces..but in 2018 when I was cosplaying Deathwing is awwwwful summer heat, the heat made my armor seams literally melt..... Thankfully! Kamui cosplay was visiting that con as a quest then and introduced me to contact cement then! Havent switched back to hot glue after that XD
