What is the best/cleanest way to remove the molded in dividers from Plano boxes? I want a box for line spools and other large things and Plano doesn't make a no divider box in the size I need. I did another one before with a cut off wheel on a dremel, but it didn't look very pretty when I was done. 

I used my dremel with a cutting disk, then smoothed with sanding disk.  Very quick and clean.

Yup, good sharp raver blade or carpet blade will do the trick

X-acto knife works for me.

Ditto 68 camero. Worked well for me.

How about a real sharp knife heated over a flame until nice and glowing.  

"like a hot knife through plasti...I mean butter"

Cut and smooth in one move. (hey the sort of rhimes)

Either or................I have used both, and they do the trick. I usually carry a folding (like a regular pocket knife) utility knife for cutting things at work that takes the replacement razor blades, it work well for this.

If you are set on using a power tool, I don't see why you couldn't do it with a dremel.  If it didn't look "pretty" when you were done, then just change your definition of what "pretty" is.   Glad I could help.

I started doing it with a razor knife and then finished it up with the dremel. I took a lighter and melted the rough edges. Still ugly, but it works. 

Hobby or craft store should have replacement blades for x-acto type knives. Many different kinds of blade types, one is like a chisel putting the sharp edge on the front. It makes trimming the rough edges smooth easy.
