    Thought I would pass this on, another option when looking to get a kit cut.
    National Balsa can now laser cut.

    so whether you need a couple pieces

    or a whole kit cut

    order your wood from us

    we can laser cut your parts

    and ship to you

    saving you money and time

    The cutting area available is 35"x47"
    we do not have wood that size.. that is only the table size of the lazer
    if you are ordering your wood from us keep in mind our sheet
    sizes when laying out your files

    Submit a DXF or DWG file for a quote
    you can send to balsabug1@aol.com
    please reference laser cutting in your subject line

    Last spring I got a fast electric boat kit that was laser cut by Naitonal Balsa. The cutting was pretty good, though the wood selection wasn't. If going with National Balsa, I suggest specifying the grade and quality of wood for the project ... do not let them select the wood.
