that thing is sick.. can't wait to see the end results.. will you put some kind of hardner on the outside of the foam or are you looking at molding it or just going to go with it?

This is my Hot Wire foam cutter that I built to help shape all my pieces. Its uses a nicrome wire that heats up when connected to a transformer power supply.

Almost ready for the detail work.

Wow im blowen away form how this is turning out. I never though of useing that tipe of foam. I see your screwing the rife to hold it in. Well you be resening or maybe fiber glassing the out side befor you paint it?

 

[Rodimus]

looking great wish i had the skills and patience to build something like this

I've seen that foam before, people use it to make minature terrain. Is there anyway you can give us all a list of the items you used, like the sealant for the foam? I want to try to make something like this. Thanks in advance!

The foam is dense enough that screws hold really well, but i usually take them out after the glue set up so that i dont have a problem if i need to cut something off or during the sanding stage. as far as hardening, i have used a mix of different thing combined with primer and paint (which makes it semi-strong), but no real hardening agent.

well... thats one way of maing a barrel i have not seen before. i like it.

 

[tahoeanime]

The barrel is made out of copper fittings (not that impressive), but the light and the sights are made out of gift cards glued together and cut out. it nice because its like building with plastic but i can be more accurate (and smaller) cause the cards are only about 1/16 of an inch thick.
