Cutting out the stations


We've progressed quite a bit since my first post.  We have since cut out all the station molds, built the mini-nomad strongback and set-up the mold stations.  We are in the process of attaching the full-size mold stations and are about to bend & laminate the stems on the mini-nomad.   Above is the picture of our cnc-router cutting out the mold stations for the 1/3rd scale Nomad.  It worked well.  If you look closely you will notice we have added centre-lines to the mold stations.  As we were drawing up the CAD files, i thought it would aid set-up to have a line engraved into the mold indicating the centreline (perpendicular to the baseline).
