Sculpting Tool
The ideal tool for sculpting, carving, and scroll cutting foam. The arms rotate to adjust the cutting wire length or flex the wire for negative cuts. Add the optional Wire Tensioner to keep your cutting wire straight. The Sculpting Tool can be equipped with optional Pro wires for use with our Pro Power Supplies.

FAQs
Why did my 4-Foot Compound Bow only come with 2 clamps?
By default, the Compound Bow only needs 2 clamps for the base of the Bow. The arms only need clamps if you get a set of Extension Arms.
Can the 2-Foot Bow use the Pro Power Supplies?
While the 2-Foot Bow is not compatible with the Multi-Heat or Variable Heat Power Stations, it can be used with the Deluxe Variable Heat Power Station which has an outlet specifically for the 2-Foot Bow.
What are the major differences between the Sculpting Tool and Freehand Router?
The Sculpting Tool is primarily a straight cutting tool with a taut blade that can bend and flex for some negative and complex cuts whereas the Freehand Router is designed specifically to bend and shape for organic and complex cuts, but is near impossible to make straight cuts.
