Hi Guys,
OK the machine is running great now. However i asked my son what he would like to come and watch something being cut, obviously being just like me he jumped at the chance.
BUT his project, is that he wants a JET! something we can hang from the roof in our workshop!! he likes the idea of painting it all up etc.
Now i know this can be done, but my skills with solidworks are limited and i know that a jet will have to be done in layers now this is where i will struggle.
I have the model from GrabCad and thought about doing it in blue foam, glass it so he is able to paint it
I understand that the tailplane, wings and canopy will have to be removed from the plane, im just not sure how i go about slicing the model up in solidworks so that when each layer is cut it fits together... make sense?
so im looking for a little help to try and make this possible.
here is the link to the model, im leaving out the missiles, drop tanks and wheels etc maybe that is something I can learn later

Any help would be very much appreciated
