I just tried to do an half stab 3d milling...look not too bad except that the plywood doesn t give good results compare to foam.

Are you going to go continue using the plywood or switch to foam?

will see...still not sure if I want to do the wing by 3D milling or not...
I already have some made with formers and skinning and they don t look tooo bad.
the only thing is that it is sure that 3d milling is far more accurate but I might have some little issues on the edges.

it's been a while I didn t posted anything here and the website....life keeping me sooooo busy lol!

I went back to my original plan which was 3D milling of plug instead of planking...(so my previous work is kept as a backup).

in order to do so I have sold my previous cnc and made a much bigger and better one...here is few pics....

soon pics of the job done will be posted...stay tuned!

Before going into the long process of 3d milling, I tested my new cnc on some cuttings of custom retracts frames for the main gear... result is pretty good
