Easy to cut but not too soft.

Excellent product. I used to use it for carving/modeling. I even bought it new. Surprisingly, although there was some wear on the corners, it was otherwise in excellent condition.

Pros
  • Positive only
Cons
  • Can be damaged

Easy to cut Craft

I made 3D shapes to teach technical drawing. It was easy to carve with a simple wood saw. Be careful though, the foam sheds a lot of powder so I colored them after the cut to make them easier and cleaner to work with.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • boring packaging

It works as I said, but not what I was hoping for.

A lot of foam dust, similar to concentrated sawdust. Works as advertised, but I thought it was "rubber" rather than "styrofoam". Might work for some projects but not for me.

Pros
  • A high density foam used by artists and 3D designers to create exquisite and detailed sculptures and durable models.
Cons
  • Long delivery time

The best material for carving!

I'll start with the only negative aspect of this foam: be prepared for a mess. Fine particles are everywhere and you'll probably want to wear a mask or respirator. However, it is the best carving material in the world! It's soft and dense, very similar to balsa or basswood but without the texture. In contrast to other foams, it does not form any annoying lumps or balls when shaped. I would love to buy a huge sheet of this, I would use it in all my projects.

Pros
  • Glue the pieces together to get the desired size.
Cons
  • New competitors have emerged

Easy to mold

Did exactly what I wanted. It is soft enough to be cut with blunt tools used for working with clay. This makes it easy to use and the minimal effort makes it less dangerous than wood carving. It's not soft enough to warp or crumble during processing, although I've been careful with it (you can poke your fingernail in if you press on it. There's a lot of dust, but that's with this type of material to be expected I've mostly worked on a tray and rinsed it off and when you're done, dry yourโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Includes 1 30 x 15 x 10 cm / 11.8 x 5.9 x 3.9 block conforming to ASTM D 4236.
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
