Liteply is a legitimate building material and, like all products, has its strengths and limitations. Better than sheet balsa in some ways, it is the material of choice for many modern kits, due to the availability of laser cutting. Of course, in designing for laser, it becomes necessary to make preliminary prototypes. This saw is excellent for that job.
I also have a 14” bandsaw with the capability of really low speeds - which is great for metal (I have cut up to .75” aluminum and a lot of .25” steel. On wood, it gives me better control on long smooth lines but frankly sucks on interior cuts. I really don’t like to compromise my structures with little half-assed repairs, especially when this saw offers me a much better solution for those interior cuts.
