I'll bet you've got to be darn careful using a router on foam !!!!!

There are two wires shown in the photo, the rectangular one was being used to cut a chunk out of a piece, and I slipped the curved wire in to re-create the radius curve used earlier. This could be easily modified to make a tighter radius.
I had used a trim router to start removing material from a piece of foam, but quickly realized the benefit of a hot-wire cutter. I've made more than a dozen different jigs to do different cuts. It's so much cleaner. (ghcoe has been my inspiration on that subject [http://www.tnttt.com/viewtopic.php?f=55&t=54099&start=75].) I also use the Stanley pocket plane for cleaning up less professional cuts I've made.
