    looks an awful lot like my electric turkey carving knife and cheese grater... (which is what I've been using to shape foam throughout my entire career.)
    BUT, I gotta give props to Sailrite. I learned a TON from watching their videos when I was starting out, (and probably learned about the turkey knife from one of them). They make some fantastic products too.

    I have used an ordinary electric carving knife to shape Foam, when I rebuild/replace the seat covers on motorcycles if the foam its self has disintegrated or been damaged. It works great, and I can continue to use it to carve the Thanksgiving turkey ..
    I learned about using an electric turkey carving knife if that’s what you wanna call it from a guy that actually owns an upholsterer shop..
    I also saw a small article in one of the motorcycle magazines I had subscriptions to back in the 80s and 90s. They showed how to get a piece of foam, and carve it into the shape required with an Ordinary kitchen, electric carving knife

    • @SailriteWorkbench

      Yes, that is a very good approach for lower density foams. When you get into high density foam the electric knife does struggle and ultimately you will burn up the motor in it. But for small projects or one-offs absolutely!

    Hi! Does anyone know how to put contours (cutouts) in Memory Foam? I am trying to develop a car seat cushion that has shaped contours for butt and legs in the cushion? I appreciate any ideas or direction you can give. Thanks!

    Always hold the blade plate BEHIND the blade. Make sure the cutting edge points away from your hand.

    • @SailriteWorkbench
      @SailriteWorkbench  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes, you're right! Because this is a powered tool we recommend to use it safely by ensuring the blade is always pointing away from you and to ensure safe hand placement.

      it's how most of the industry does it i'm not sure what videos you're looking at. [auto industry especially does it this way] some of us use a cheese grater and electric knife but otherwise this is it. [same thing lower budget]

      @@fuzzjunkyI don’t remember the terms but basically there’s a wire from toaster or hair dryer that can handle heating up when electricity is applied. Connect the wire to a proper electric source and it cuts thru the foam like butter without all the shavings and foam dust
      You can do any sort of intricate shape
      There’s other methods also but that’s the one I’d go with
