EPO foam airplane

I would like to build a model airplane out of EPO foam. Once I have a design on CAD, what do I do? I'm not sure what the build process is like.
Thanks

You make a mould and pour it, very expensive is the answer! Unless you are making hundreds to sell that is.

The other way is cutting EPP using a hot wire bow, not as sexy but much cheaper!

What material does the mold need to be in? Where do I buy the EPO foam to pour into this mold?

I second that question. I'm totally ok with making molds, but where do we get info on the foam to inject into it?

Thanks,
Tim
