P-38 Lightning Aircraft CNC: New CNC Router Project!

Another day, another CNC router project from WoodMarvels.com! This time, it’s a very big and strong P-38 Lightning Aircraft featuring a very sturdy build, spinning rotors and pocketed emblems on the wing.

It too me two tries to finalize this design on my ShopBot Desktop machine but once I got everything fitting perfectly using 6mm plywood, it was really amazing to hold such a large model in my hands! It has heft, sure, it won’t fly very far unless you equip it with a jet engine but it’s a very strong build and not easily broken apart once the glue dries.

You can find this and many other CNC woodworking projects at WoodMarvels.com under Collaborations / ShopBot Tools. You can get this great CNC project right now in DXF/PartWorks file formats and PDF.

If you want to get an idea of this project, be sure to checkout the proof of concept video below!
