It creates a double bevel. Nice!

Instead of cutting, I make the bevel with a sanding block. It gives you much more control and comes out perfect.

When you lack that FT dexterity to cut nice bevels you come up with your own.
I like yours, I like mine better and I need to do like you and make a 50s video showing it.
Whether you are painting in oils or making DTFB airplanes, it's not wrong if it works.

The edge of my work table has a metal edge. The surface lays on the table with the edge to bevel even with the table edge. I get "25mm snap knives" to cut the bevel.

I also use a Hanger 9 monocote iron to iron the bevel down to the surface. It makes the foam edges MUCH stronger.

Simply drawing a line (1) foam thickness from the edge to follow is a huge help for me, and if you cut *just* through the paper on said line (with a straightedge) before doing the final bevel, your blade can follow this cut from underneath while it rides on the outer edge of the opposite side and they come out machine-perfect without any special cutters or jigs. Unless you sneeze.
Bless you!
thank you! excuse me
