    I figure it will take a loooong time to test it on my machine, plus my Z drifts just a bit.
    It is designed for an 1/8" bit so the pockets will come out right.
    Thinking back on it I should have made it half size to test it out. Attached files Pockettestwing.cnc (39.5 KB)Â [​IMG]

    Sweet, thanks guys, it is for a biplane called the Zactly that Midwest products puts out. The AMA magazine had an article on it on how he pocketed it to save weight. I will finish the design tomorrow if I get a chance

    Cool video Randy! I thought you had the camera mounted to the gantry for a little while there :)
    That came out great looking! I have some extra foam I am going to try it with too :)
    Looking forward to the plane Jeff, so far it looks like it will be really nice
