I'm kind of stalled on my current big project, mostly from the Deadly Sin of Sloth, but partially from Despair.
I need some Really Freaking Light 3/8 x 3/8 sticks. Normally, if I want sticks I strip them off of a sheet that I like -- but stripping 3/8" balsa with a knife is a bit extreme, and 1/2" is even more so. It's hard to maintain a nice square edge, and the knife likes to wander. So part of me wants to just buy some 3/8" and 1/2" contest sheets and whack away with straightedge and knife, part of me wants to see if I can buy light sticks, and part of me wants to take a break and buy or build a small table saw. I really need to stop dithering and order balsa.
What do y'all do when you want a nice square light stick?
