    so whats the difference between hd foam and just ordinary eva foam?

    • @SKSProps
      @SKSProps  3 місяці тому

      HD-Foam is easier to work with while also cutting cleaner and sanding smoother than other products. Plus since it is high density the surface is smoother, doesn't dull blades as quickly, and is easier to manipulate for compund curves. Just try it once and I promise you'll see the difference 👍

    hey! I was watching your videos and I had a question, how do I know what size I have to print the template? the templates I've already printed from other channels were always on A4 paper. The item in question I want to make is the superhero chest armor, and like, I'm 5'7'' or 170cm, and I don't know in what size to print the square of the template.
    If it's not a problem, could you explain it in a video?
