Does anyone have a hot foam wire cutter I could use to cut out my pelican case.Ihave seen to many jacked up ones and I dont want to spend the money to get one and only use it once. This would be very much appreciated. :D

Nope sure dont.
My shit rides in nothingness. I cant afford cases
I just used a razor blade and it came out pretty good. A buddy of mine uses a dremel and looks REALLY good, but stinks. You also have to use a fairly dense foam for the dremel.

On ARFCOM they were using the hot wire cutter and it came out perfect. After seeing how nice theres were Im for sure not going to use a blade.

Just regular foam right?
If so put a power source to a clothes hanger, (or some other thick metal) it'll heat up and you can go crazy. Remember to protect yourself from the shock, and heat.

I wonder if a curling iron would work.

You could use a blowtorch and heat the gun up real hot, lay it on some chef paper and cover it with same, close the lid and let it custom-fit itself in.
If we are talking about that foam like pool toys are made of, then a knife would work well. if its that other stuff then i don't know.
