Eclipse Wings

@Nathaniel Li

• 3D prints ready, 1 PLA print and 1 ABS print

• Laser cutting balsa is ready to be done

  • I’ve prepared the DWG for the ribs, someone just needs to put it on a USB and bring the balsa to the RPC to get it cut

  • Can I get someone who’d like to do this? I’ll message you with detailed instructions

• Once 3d prints and balsa are cut, assembling can start!

  • If possible, this can be done at the next work session
