BALSA CHOPPER TABLE WITH STORAGE
Print Profile(1)
Description
UPDATE: Added two different storage drawers
This is my updated balsa chopper table. It now has storage and can handle up to 3/8 balsa. It has movable / removable straight edges. The straight edge slides and can be mounted on the left or right side of the table to make accurate repeatable cuts. You can use the 90° - 45° - 45° to get it straight before tightening the bolts (do not over tighten the bolts!). Storage in front of and under the table. Three triangles. 90° - 45° - 45°, 60° - 60° - 60°, and a 90° - 30° - 60°. The table has, by most peoples standards, a high infill. That is on purpose for strength. Change at you own risk. The chopper arm also has a hole thru it and the straight guides to slip a piece of filament thru to lock the arm for safety. Trays for the open storage area will be added. Let me know some ideas on how to design them. When cutting balsa, push the arm down just over the razor blade. The arm is long strictly to rest between the tall arms for a straight cut every time. You can adjust the size of the storage by the Z axis only!
