[QUOTE="Chris Hindle, post: 207563, member: 552"] Ben, in my experience, most glues soften up a good bit with a hot-air gun. The kind you use for heat shrink, not a hair dryer. Maybe back up the laminate on the outside with a towel soaked in cold water. You don't want to de-laminate the case. Hard to say how rigid that foam is, but I've cut stuff under 1" easily with a box-cutter knife. Thicker, and I get out the wife's electric carving knife. Heck, we only use it once or twice a year...... for food. MAKE SURE IT'S CLEAN when you put it back in the drawer !!!! DON'T heat the blade. It will melt through, while it's still hot, but you'll never get the crap off the blade. 1 shot, and it's scrap. For heat cutting, a wire is used. Chris. [/QUOTE]
