No think more like a turkey carver. Like this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000DAR49?ie=UTF8&force-full-site=1&ref_=aw_bottom_links
Use an electric knife to cut your foam. Works like a charm!
The easiest thing I've found is an electric knife sold for cutting turkey. It has 2 blades which slice into the foam easily.
Pro tip: Save time and effort carving foam by picking up an electric carving knife.

It takes some practice but is a lot faster that scissors. Just be careful. The speed of knife makes it easy to over cut both foam and fingers.
Best thing to use is a electric turkey cutter:

Makes it really easy to cut foam.
I've tried an electric knife, but that didn't have the control I'd hoped, although it was fast. With more patience, you might have better luck than me. Also, don't buy the one I linked, instead find one at a thrift store.
I tried to build a hot-wire cutter from toaster parts, but it didn't get hot enough, so I gave up on it.
In the end, I ended up just free-hand sanding and cutting away the foam. In other words, I'd spring for a second ball. :( Check your local Dollar Store. They have a small selection of foam, and while their spheres are probably too small, it does end up being a good place to get a 4" cube
One last hint: A mandolin slicer is really good for taking thin slices off a foam sphere. I used it to flatten the backs of eyeballs, and it worked really well.
