Ordering this kit was the best investment. The tools saved me tons of time on my project, I used to just hack away at foam with serated knives! So clean up was a mess before the hot tools. They heat up within seconds, very easy to learn to use. My project was making building facades to attach to a wagon for a mardi gras dog parade.
Fantastic glue, I use it to bond balsa leading and trailing edge to my custom cut foam core wings. Best adhesion when you apply a smooth bead to one side, make contact then pull apart then re-attach . Instant bond which is permanent after glue has cured. Cannot pull apart without breaking the balsa and foam. Never had a glue failure yet. Been using this glue for approximately 4 years. These wings are also subjected to moisture because the wings are built for water-based RC airplanes, meaning they can only fly off and land on water. Here is one of my planes taxing back to shore, second pic coming in for landing.
I purchased this machine not knowing how to use it but I knew I was interested. Joe at Hot wire foam factory has been nothing short of amazing from the start of the inquiry and still now 1 year later. I’m super impressed with this company’s customer service and will be doing more business with them. Thank you so much for being an amazing company.
