Still had to do some messy foam-cutting for the ideal laptop-layout

(do a quick search on youtube and you will get my point) so resorted to a small thin blade saw, still managed to goof up the first foam cuts but the second time around was much better

Once I picked up my case the only damage was a slight ding or cut where something sharp must have sliced a bit of the case off

Yes, I've tried sandwiching my gear between clean T shirts in a hard case
