I cover some advanced basics of how to bend cut and assemble FoamCore/ FoamBoard the right way, how not to cut the stuff and how to take things to the next level and improve your quality and craftsmanship. I make some basic 2" cylinders and soft box shapes with out exposed foam. Good for everything from architects to engineering, exhibit designers to interior designers and of course Industrial design.

Having spent 15 years working in a school shop class environment, you are demonstrating good woodworking skills in the use of foam core. Those v’s in the curved part can be achieved with solid wood by making a series of kerf cuts, which allows the outside to bend easily. Nice tutorial! Thank you. Subbed.

I'm really enjoying theses foamcore videos, brings back lots of memories of working in and running graphic arts shops in the 90s. We used a lot of foamcore and gatorboard of course for mounting artwork but also for package design proofing too. I can remember the specialised tools we had, Xacto and Olfa made most of them like bevel cutters which were essentially a block that held a blade or two on an angle. We also had a huge Xacto panel cutter and various heat and cold mounters. There were other adhesives too, one came as flat sheets or rolls of a material that looked like a dryer sheet which was dry and not sticky at all until you hit it with heat gun or tacking iron another was rubber cement that was good for foam to foam and lastly 3M '77' that awful spray stuff that got everywhere but could occasionally do wonders. I like seeing your personal design work best but these tutorials are fun.

@@EricStrebel ~ You earned the comment, as for the "Thumbs DWN", it's more of a societal problem where there's a large number who're looking to find anything wrong? They'll complain/whine about any/everything & not mention the work you put in to share your tips/tactics. They have become like a "pimple" on ones ass that needs to be popped & wiped off to heal. That may have been too much a complement for how much disgust I have for these "Flakes". I'll delete this if you wish, I don't want you to get a rash of these Zits on your bum...... peace
@roastbeefy0weefy

It's because of the intro. The "X" sound is unpleasant, and the approach is a bit too harsh for a video targeted toward beginners. "Then this video is not for you." Oh word? Then who's it for? People who already know foam core basics? Then to show a picture of himself folding his arms with a personal introduction... I can imagine the internal reasoning for all these creative moves, but still it comes off the wrong way. That's insulting the audience, albiet unintentionally. I kept watching only because I'm eager to learn this stuff. I'm not thumbing down these videos. Just explaining why I imagine someone would. That said, thanks for making these.

To make curved surfaces, remove the internal paper layer and then squeeze the foam between the border of a table and your hand, rubbing it up and down will give it a cylinder shape, but cones are also possible. Sorry for English.

Do you have a preference on what material you use to make models? For example, are there better materials to use for models with more complex forms? Or is it basically up to how skilled the maker is that makes the difference
@EricStrebel
@EricStrebel 6 лет назад
Alex Cruz it kind of depends on the the form/function of the project and finding a good material to do the job. Sometimes you just need an appearance model that does not have to function, other times you need to select a material that will be a bit more durable so you can check how something works. It's a case by case thing. Good question though!

Was just wondering - how do you work out the measurement for the length of the foam board you are curving around for the cylinder to make it match up with the circumference of the circle? Would much appreciate your help for this. Thanks :)

Just basic math, use the formula for the circumference of a circle to find the length.

Have you ever tried combining foam core and any type of modeling clay? I assume oil based clays would degrade the paper. Would a polymer clay work any better? What about modeling wax? I want to combine the flatness and volume making potential of the foam core with the softness of clay for a piece for which I will be making a mold to cast cement. Any ideas?

Not really, oil based clay will stain the foam paper, try it see what happens.

How do you hide a seam with two flat pieces that are going to be painted? Can you use a filler of some sort? And can it be sanded to smooth? I’m basically going to paint it and put it on my ceiling lol

How about applying a light 1000 grit to some of those edges?

@EricStrebel 7 лет назад
+Neoblackdragon yes, that would be possible, I don't see any harm in that.could be good to soften up the edges and clean them up

Any advice on how to paint the foam core without any warping?
@EricStrebel
@EricStrebel 5 лет назад
796 Studios Yes, use shellac to seal the foam board, it should work, test first of course. Watch my cardboard video it talks about shellac ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nNLY1yt9iCE.html Thanks for the comment.

For the cylinder, rather than the scoring, wouldn't just peeling the paper off the inside allow it to curve easily?

Possibly....
