I have recently started prototyping Radio Controlled Model Aircraft. I have been in the hobby since 1964 but after my work has slowed down. I have been an engineer for the past thirty five years designing production machines and machine tools. I have never worked with a laser cutter before and have no idea what is a good one. I need to be able to cut parts that are 48" in length. The thickest parts to cut would be aircraft grade plywood and maximum thickness would be 3/8". Please help
