As I further explore laser cutting, I wanted to take on a fun project that would use 3D modeling in SketchUp. I found an old sailboat design from a famous boat builder in my local town and imported it into SketchUp to convert it to 3D.

Boat builder here, great work! I’m impressed by how easy you made it look to understand the lines and then exporting those to sketchup and then! Making the machine cut it out. Huge props, now onto the planking!

Good stuff Matt! I've been interested in Laser Cutting for a bit, so it's nice to get a step by step of what the process looks like - great job!

Interesting project. LWL means Load Water Line or the water line with a normal load on board the boat.

Nicely done, Matt. I like the wall sconce idea. Do you intend to model, cut and build the rest of the sailboat?
