ABSTRACT:
A foam plane apparatus for planing foam includes a frame, a cutting element mounted rotatably on the frame, and a motor on the frame for rotating the cutting element as a user moves the cutting element across a body of foam for purposes of planing the foam. The cutting element includes a drum that is directly coupled to the motor, and a plurality of longitudinally extending rows of radially protruding teeth on the drum that are accomplished with elongated blades mounted in slots in the drum. A retainer collar engages the blades in order to removably retain the blades in the slots while facilitating blade replacement. The motor is arranged on the frame to serve as one of two handles for the apparatus.
