Fuse parts cut! It took about 1.5 hours to cut the parts. With a more powerful laser, the time would go way down since it takes 6 passes for each part. The more time consuming part is converting the drawing into a file the etcher can use! If anyone is interested in this method, let me know. I’m happy to talk about my pipeline. I was able to cut all the parts for the airplane on one 1/16 x 6 x 36 sheet of balsa, including twice as many wing ribs as outlined in the plan. I was cutting for a good 8 hours, but once I was comfortable that I wasn’t going to catch anything on fire, I was able to do other work while the cutting happed. It’s still a good idea to keep your eye on it though!

I like that idea. My fingers were cramping yesterday from cutting ribs and notches.
