Homemade Hot Wire Foam and Styrofoam Cutter (Complete Easy Tutorial)

This simple homemade hot wire foam cutter helps to make models from foam very quickly and accurately. The video demonstrates how to build your own hot wire foam cutter at home in any size you want. 🆄🅿🅳🅰🆃🅴🅳 🅿🆁🅾🅹🅴🅲🆃 • how to make a hot wire...
You can incorporate the temperature controller into the wire for better performance.
Material
• Wood for the frame (you can use your own material)
• Screws
• Switch
• DC Power Supply Socket Jack Female and Male
• DC power supply adaptor Output: 6V DC/ 1A (Good voltage and current will have a better
performance. however it will damage or melt the wire.so, make sure the power supply is
compatible with your wire)
• Heat resistant wire (Nichrome Wire)
• Adhesives
• Electrical wires
• You can add or modify any materials and specification
Cautions Cautions
• Do not use AC direct power source 220/110
• Use a small amount of DC volt around 3-6 volt. It is enough to test your prototype
• Make sure safe with hotwire!!!! it may cause some damage to your skin !!!!
please consult people around you if you not are well familiar with it.

can you write down the materials used please? and how did you connect the wires in that female jack something... Thank you

that's cool

Thanks, will do!

good job

Can i use 12v 2amp adopter bro?

[@wesutd]

yes you can. however you need to consider the width of cutting wire ( nichrome ) with the current you have.
thank you for asking brother please keep intouch

[@wesutd]

Please Subscribe for support it is a LOT for me. Thanks

[@gilbertreyes6750]

What kind of screw did you use to adjust the wire ?

[@wesutd]

am sorry being too late to replay. I just use ordinary screw. the type of screw did not matter. however, using spring at the bottom
will play an important role to support the wire. when wire is heated it will lose its strength and can't do proper cutting work. that is why I advise you to use spring. thanks for asking and please keep in touch.

[@gilbertreyes6750]

@@wesutd but i see no spring
And also the top screw where you adjust the wire to stretch confused me if what type

[@useitwice]

Built to last I see ^^
What kind of glue is that?

[@wesutd]

that is a SUPER GLUE Cyanoacrylate adhesive

Can i use 5.5volts output adapter?

[@wesutd]

Yes You can. However, the problem will be on the current. the cutting wire (nichrome wire) and the the current you use will matter on the cutting work. so, use a better adaptor with good output voltage and current. Thanks for asking. if you are not satisficed with this please ask me again and again i will provide information.

[@thetoymaker9404]

@@wesutd any output adapter will short circuit and will be cut off immediately.

[@abdulharisameer8859]

How much volt adaptor have u used???

[@wesutd]

information and caution about the project are mentioned in description box.so, you can check and know. Keep connected. thank you.

Adaptor berpa volt dan amper bos ? Terus ukiran kawat nikelin berpa mm ?? Mkasih

[@wesutd]

Thanks for review and question. the adaptor is 6V DC/ 1A.

Thanks for review and question. the adaptor is 6V DC/ 1A.

Thanks for review and question. the adaptor is 6V DC/ 1A.

[@1979zeesh]

Which wire u used?

[@wesutd]

I used copper wire which is heat resistant and
You can use any wire which can resist heat.
I recommend you to use material from a Coaxial Cable of a satellite dish.

[@1979zeesh]

@@wesutd what size/number of copper wire u used? coaxial has 2 wires, one in middle and other a mesh arnd it

[@vinopit]

So we basicaly dont need a voltage power controler?

[@wesutd]

standard voltage output power source which is suitable with your wire resistance is ok. however, voltage controller will let you your device/model work with different type of material and Sharp cutting edge. thanks and please keep in touch

[@vinopit]

Are both ok? Voltage controler or pwm motor controler? Do they both work?

Good idea, but waaaaay too many begs for subscription. One is enough

[@wesutd]

yes! you are right. I plan to grow fast that is why. I will improve it. Thank you very much.

[@floydstime]

You need to either take this video down or provide the tolerances and specs. Its important to know how many amps are running through that wire!!! Someone could get seriously injured if you dont provide electrical specs!!! Seriously!

[@wesutd]

Thanks for your review and also I appreciate your safety concern. I provide some information on the description before and after your comment. please keep connected

[@markemery9433]

Not very informative no measurements or even what materials to use

[@wesutd]

I appreciate your concern. It is constructive for me to add what is needed for the future. i try to include information and caution about the project in description box. Thank you very much and keep connected.
