Title: Laser Cut Parts
Post by: JHildreth on March 13, 2024, 10:09:46 PM

All of the sources of laser cut parts that I knew of are no longer in operation.  Are there any retail sources of custom cut parts now?

Thanks.

Joe

Joe - Maybe you could tell us which sources are no longer viable, to make it easier for us to suggest sources that are not on your list.

Have you tried:

Bob Holman ( bhplans.com ) ?

National Balsa ( https://www.nationalbalsa.com/pages/laser-cutting ) ?

Balsa Wood Inc. ( http://www.balsawoodinc.com/lasercutting ) ?

Thanks Paul,

I was not aware that Bob Holman Plans offered a laser cutting service.  I had looked on the internet at the balsa suppliers I have on my list, including National Balsa and BalsaWoodInc.  I guess I overlooked their web pages describing their laser services.

Thanks again,

Joe

Joe,
I may be able to help you out. I have a laser which I use to cut kits for the stunt community and well over 300 plans drawn on ACAD to make the kits from. Give us an idea of what you want laser cut and perhaps we can be helpful.
