As you see, I use three passes to cut through as that seems to give me the least foam pull back. A heavy score is to cut through everything but the bottom paper. Light score cuts through the top paper and not much more. I can’t emphasize enough that these are starting points.

I think it’s a different type of foam, but the waterproof one should do the trick :sunglasses:

what’s the difference between this foam board and standard foam core sheets?

It’s the same thing except they have used a brown paper that is water resistant.

I will send you the PDFs I got from the original designer. His webpage is in japanese (I couldn’t find the download link), so I ask him directly.
