Why I needed a 100W CO2 laser and an SLA 3D printer as tools for a project for the first time in my life.
I bought the plans for the A10C Simulator project as a license on the Internet. The license allows me to recreate a cockpit.
Based on these plans, I was able to estimate the project effort for the first time. This involved deciding whether the project was feasible with my skills and what skills and know-how I needed to acquire and at what cost in order to reduce the project costs. This suddenly made it worthwhile to purchase tools that I had NEVER thought I would need in my life...but read on.
I then calculated how much it would cost to buy all the wooden parts, the acrylic switch panels and all the buttons and controls as 3D prints from various online purchasing channels. I quickly realized that it was three times cheaper to buy a 100W CO2 laser with a processing area of 900mmx1000mm+ and an SLA 3D printer.
