An electric knife will make smooth cuts very easily. You can also carve the edges down if need be. I have covered a lot of chairs, and it has always yielded good results.
I have found an electric kitchen knife works great. It might dull the knife, but they are not very expensive.
with an electric knife. I seen them on TV home improvement show. Then Marked out what they needed and then cut it. Looked simple to me.
and if you dont have an electric knife….
A hack saw blade cuts nice clean edges.
If you dont have a hack saw, just use a serrated blade where the length of the entire serrated part, is at least 2 or 3 times longer than the foam.
A bread knife? a bagel knife? foam is the same kind of consistancy-dont try a steak knife, only about half of the blade is serrated and the foam will pull and you could screw up or cut yourself. Good luck!
