Hi

This is the start of my build after spending a lot of time researching the internet I've taken the plunge. Had some real good advice from this site as well.

My motivation for building a cnc hot wire foam cutter is for two reasons.
1. I'm currently building a Radio controlled Vickers Super VC10 (http://www.rckeith.co.uk/vc10) made from 3 types of foam and the biggest pain with all this is cutting templates out. I'm getting better at it now and have just cut the wings but I'd like to have something that's more accurate and removes the need for all those templates.

2. I recently visited Mike Black who's also buidling a VC10 he runs Green Air Designs and uses CNC both foam and laser cutting and got inspired by his equipment. http://www.greenairdesigns.com/lab/i...d=6&Itemid=112

I've purchased the plan from http://www.drayconstruction.com/foamstuffs/ and have all the MDF cut out. Today I also purchased the motors and electronics from ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CNC-Kit-4-Axis...item2a0900f6ee

Will get some pictures up soon.
