I'm so amazed at how talented you are!
I want to try to make a gun now XD Btw, what do you use to carve the insulation foam? /me is scared of sharp objects x.x

Well I use almost anything available. Normally I will use razor blades, but I also use my dremel, sandpaper and a hot wire cutter. Maybe you could try the hot wire cutter and sand paper if you are worried about it.

and i thought i was the only one who used wood glue to make insulation foam hard XD i keep telling people it works but they won't believe me!

It works but you should be careful. I have noticed that after a few months the foam begins to aerate and bubbles begin to form under the glue. I have since switched to using polyurethane resin to seal my insulation foam props!

well i only used it once and didn't reinforce the spike properly, but that wasn't the glue's fault. i'm actually trying something new - Hard modge podge
