The LEP man needs a 3D printer. ;)

Good work though!

You could cut one of those in 60 seconds, without the template, with a scroll saw. 


I love my scroll saw.  :)

The LEP man does not turn down donations of High End Tools.

I'll trade you a package of fresh flour tortillas.  Sound good?

Not necessary- just pm me your address and I'll put a stamp on it.

The actual cutting is about 60 seconds with the router.  The template gives a better result when the goal is making consistent multiples.  It minimizes the sanding as well- you only have to finish the edge rather than sanding each individual piece to the line.  I had a nice scrollsaw in the Bureau of Wood Adjustment for a few years, but I just didn't use it enough to justify the space required.  Also, this is a simple piece but it was also practice for the more complex Tommy VUK plastics I'm getting ready to run.  I doubt the scrollsaw would help with the small protrusions on that plastic .   :cheers:

They're San Antonio tortillas, fool. You take them when offered.

'Actual cutting' is always 60 seconds.  It's that 2 hours of prep time that'll get you. 


The scroll saw is nice to have around when working on pins specifically for cutting plastics.
