If you use clingy kitchen plastic wrap, you can cut out the “saw blade” on the box when you’re finished with the wrap and use the saw for modeling.

I didn’t think it would work, either, until I took a piece of flat plastic and used the wrap’s blade to cut the plastic in half.

Razor saws cost about $10, while the plastic wrap is about $1-$3 and you’d normally pitch the box when out of wrap. Instead, cut the saw section out with scissors and attach it to a painter’s stick or something rigid to make a cutting tool.
