Default RE: Need airfoil file

Bob,
I've thought about making a cutter, but run up against a power supply. I made one years ago using an old train set control for the power supply. But it just didn't seem to get hot enough to cut very fast. It was just easier to go see Johnny Casburn and use his cutter. It was really fast and professional.

There was a company in Irving, United Foam Inc, they made foam blocks used in floatation wharfs that you see at the lakes around here. They always had large blocks of foam that didn't expand right. But they were good enough for foam wings.

I am in need of cutting some cores for a Super Kaos to fly in next years SPA. I wish I knew what Blake was working on. Could be interesting.
