Default Lazer Cutter/Cloud Dancer 40

Hi I was wondering if any Lazer cutter can downsize, the 40 size Cloud Dancer.. I was thinking 36-40 WS, all parts in balsa, except for the firewall..I would like to make this an Electric plane..I can reached at [email protected]

Thanks Dan

If you have the plans reduced to the size you want, almost all the kit cutters can do the kit. The majority of them can, through "computer magic", get you prints into the format the laser needs for cutting.

I suggest checking several different kit cutters on their waiting time and prices. Don't be suprised if the cost is higher than you expect though.

Hi Campy Awhile back I had the 40 size cut/short kit for around $50.00..I already got one qoute for $100.00.Thats out of my range..I do understand that besides reducing the plans, they have reduce the vector or what ever they need to so the Lazer can read it..

I wish I had the pantience to cut the parts myself..Reducing the plans any office supply can do that..

Thanks Dan

Hi All Where have all the Lazer cutters gone??..Have they too fell victim to the ARF's?? Maybe this job of mine is too small for them?? Oh well there is no rush..I'm sure I can get the 40 or 60 Cloud Dancer cut without a problem...Will travel down that road later, once the smaller is done..

Hi All Well this project looks like it's finished even before it got started..I can get the plans downsized to what I need.. Any one willing to lend a hand and put them into the format, that the Lazer Cutter needs to cut them..

Thanks Anyway Dan

Hey, Dancin' Man,

Glad to see you're getting a new Cloud Dancer. It didn't look right with you flying a Tiger 2 or Kavalier. Don't forget to send me some photos of the E-Dancer for publication.

Hi Campy I did send Lazer Lizards an e-mail..I sent an e-mail to a few of the lazer cutters..So far I haven't recieved any replies, except one. He wanted $100.00..I think a good part of the cost is getting the plans into the lazer format
They could always include the "E" Cloud Dancer to there line..If the E CD flies anything like the glow versions, It's a sure WINNER for the "E" crowd!!!!!

Thanks Dan

PS I've seen the short kit for the Cloud Dancer 40 size listed at $42.50 +shipping
