Dear Hot Wire Foam Factory friends, last year my associate Paul Parichan purchased the Pro 5-in-1 Kit with 3D Scoll Kit. At the time he ordered it, you mentioned that you would like to see photos of our first project...so here they are. These are photos of Sam's Shoe Store in Teedly, CA. All the buildings, carts and lamp posts are Sytrofoam. We made them using mostly the Freehand Router, the 3D Table and the Sculpting Tools. These tools made this project easy and enjoyable. I've worked in Styrofoam in the past using small saws, files and rasps. for detailing, a dremel roto-tool. Now cuts are easier with less waste and a sharper defined edge. As you can see in the photos, we were not working on minatures and were very rough on the tools which held up perfectly. No problems at all. The quality of your tools are great! Our next purchase will be the 2x4 Foot Compound Bow Cutter which I will need on my project. i've been hired to completely cover the exterior of a house with a flagstone rock texture and finish. We would like to thank you for a great product and the terrific service we received from you. We would be honored to be included on your shared project website page. Please let us know what you think of our photos and again, thank-you so much for the tools and help.

The books are one piece of Styrofoam. As we made them, Randy and I both said how we wished we had the Bow Cutter to make them. So it will definitely be our next purchase from you. People are coming from all over to see our windows and once they find out everything is Styrofoam the question most asked is how we shaped it all. So i must say your company's name about 100 times a day. We look forward to your feedback on what we did with your tools...
Thanks, Paul
