Status: offline 		I love it. I am now working to set this one up for laser cutting. I have modified by stretching the nose 1 inch for better balance. Dad has one I bulit for him some years ago as a pulser. It was hard to balance with .020. Have you had any trouble?I need to beat you out of some of that checkard silk!!!

I've used 01's in both, an 02 would be overkill!
Thanks on the checkerboard comment...this one is actually checkerboard tissue! Have to be careful not to poke any holes!
Yes, you will have to fight me over even small scraps of checkerboard silk or tissue!
