Great video. I have just started using my laser to cut plans/parts, but I have run into an issue that I cannot solve. What process did you use to cut your ribs and other balsa parts? I assume the tiled plan pieces you cut with your laser were a PDF file. How were you able to get it into a format lightburn could use? The plans on the blue paper appear to be just copied from a printed set, and are in a raster format, not vector format, which lightburn needs to work.

The paper plans are printed straight from the pdf file from Outerzone using my "Print Plans at Home" video. Also, the same Outerzone file I opened in Lightburn and hand traced the parts for cutting out the High Five on my laser using my video called "My Process" (parts 1 and 2). Lightburn will open pdf plans but if they are PDFbitmap then you'll have to trace them with Lightburn or by hand in Lightburn. Look under the Advance tab on Outerzone for plans in PDFvector that are ready to cut on a laser. Also cad plans will open in Lightburn if they are DXF.
DWG plans will need to be converted to DXF. There are several online conversion sites available.
My Beginner videos will help with a lot of these practices. Thanks for checking out my vids!!!
