One man foam wing cutting wire position calculator
Hi all,
I did a simple calculator to find the position of the fixed point of the hot wire if you would like to cut foam cores alone (one man work). I still did not check it for rightness, so please if something is wrong tell me and I will fix it. Simply input the data you want and get the position where to fix one end of the wire. This way it is possible to use only one airfoil template. Hopefully this will be useful to someone  Best regards, Ric |
