Review: NOT WORKING - It’s not working after purchasing transformer for the same
Review: Great, but you do need Proxxon power supply. - I bought this to be able to create customized polystyrene packing for a very delicate sculpture that I've made. To cut the polystyrene the way I wanted I needed a tool that could cut it in depth, and this did the job. Now my sculpture is fully protected with handmade packing. The tool is great, it warms up quickly (5 to 10 seconds) and when you stop holding the button it turns off and after a few seconds you can start modelling the wire again without burning your hands. It is very easy to control. The power cable is not removable from the handle and the end plug connects to a different socket than normal power adaptors, so be careful, if you are not an electrician you won't be able to use a different power supply model. You do need to get the original Proxxon power supply. The price advertised currently (June 2014) is £32.95, but I had to pay £61.84 as I added the Power Supply and delivery. Quite pricey but there was no other option, I couldn't find a cheaper one with good reviews. I recommend buying the product and the power supply from the same seller so you save on delivery. Mine came from Germany but it arrived quickly in 2 business days. It also came with a UK Plug adaptor.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What gauge Ni-chrome wire comes with the cutter?**
A: I do not remember. it is round wire, and it change the shape that you formed, once you pass it on the material (unless your material is very very soft.

**Q: Will the wire in this tool hold its shape with prolonged use?  I would be using it for internal decor in a restoration project for a 1920's theater.**
A: It comes with several (5-6?) replacement wire elements. I've used my cutter a fair amount so far & am still on the 1st wire

**Q: can I purchase it with a transformer to suit Australia's 240V supply**
A: Steve, You will need to purchase 28707 Proxxon Transformer NG2/E (230-240 volt) Variable Speed or 28706 Proxxon Transformer NG2/S (230-240 volt) Either transformer will work on the 27082 Thermocut 12/E.

**Q: Is there a transformer which runs on 240Volt 50Hz available ?**
A: Proxxon 38706 Transformer NG 2/S
