Hey guys!
I have been reading the posts and getting some really good ideas for a tank or two. Wish I could make it to a battle or two but until I finnish CRNA school spare time is not an option. I do have some experience with CNC machines though. I have been drawing some Walker Bulldog plans on my CAD.  Cutting large pieces on a small CNC machine can be done. The limiting factor is the width of the machine. I had a home built 2'x4' router that I could cut pieces as long as I wanted, I was limited to the 2' width. I use Turbo Cad for 2D stuff. I just make a stopping point in my drawing when they are longer than my table. I run the cut up to the point, then move the piece down and continue. Hope this helps.  Roy in NJ.
