I'm having a go at plans for the laser, however 12x24 is a bit small for the base, which is 22x12.25 (so 1/4" too wide ) That bit I suppose could either be chopped in half, or (since it's straight lines) be cut by other methods.
That bit is also two 0.6" thick sections, with a 0.45" spacer between them. I'm not quite sure what the best approach would be there. That's about right for plywood, but a big hunk of wood that size is gonna be a bit heavy. Several layers of styrene would work. Probably not worth trying to make that part "boxy"
Awesome!
I have access to another laser that is 24"x 36" as well but I was thinking to chop that part in half.
Yes I'm thinking of using a mixture of materials, styrene and baltic birch to start and layering if needed.
Probably do some resin/fiberglass support on the inside.
Any help is appreciated!
