Any possibility that you could produce laser - cut kits of these? I know that balsa is

2 - 3 sizes to start?

Many thanks in advance,

If I get a chance tomorrow I'll post a picture or two of the cradles I made from Baltic Birch Plywood from the handbook. . I used 1/8" and 1/4" ply. length are about 6" and 12"
I ordered the plywood from www.sloanswoodshop.com located in Lebanon, TN
