I was thinking in terms of sheets of thin balsa wood - which could probably be cut with the kind of power I could get from a Lego motor. (...) (21 years ago, 12-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | | (...) If you already have the Dremel, how about buying one of those pen-like extensions? (URL) lighter and smaller. Easier to access controls that way, too (plus the resolution can be adjusted by changing the size of the bit). ~Mike (21 years ago, 12-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics)
