I have a stock of scrap styrofoam packaging in my shed and I recently made a hot wire bow for cutting foam so I wanted to see if that foam was any use. This project is split over several episodes and in it's own playlist. /playlist/PLA5a2xPRSrB0IHk7pAAHCwTLfGDX_SK-k
I cannot answer comments from people who have blocked replies, so if you don't get a reply to your question that may be the reason. It is probably worth reading my video description first because the answer may already be there. If you need a reply make sure your Google+ privacy settings allow replies from users that are not in your circles or add me to your circles first.

Generally my projects are for my grandchildren to enjoy. OK, I enjoy them too. If anybody else likes them, that is a bonus. I like to keep my work as simple and basic as possible so that it can be copied easily and improved by anybody who wants to try themselves. I recycle or repurpose items rather than buy new and when I do buy I like to keep it cheap.
