I’ve been grinning ear to ear because I finally got my pieces laser cut!
Here’s one of the sheets after cutting. (I should have taken more pictures of the laser cutter in action, but I was too focused on getting the work done.)
Here is a picture of the design, followed by the corresponding pieces dry fit.
And various other pieces. Because someone requested it, the classic rudder is there as well as the modern rudder.
This is my cradle for holding the ship while I work on it.
And the laser cut pieces next to the original solid hull.
Next time, a closer examination of the pieces and some lessons learned about laser cutting.
