I remember someone had a post on a home made foam cutting machine here (I hope) for wings. If I remember correct they had plans for it.
Of course I can not remember were that post is......
If anyone knows, please direct me in that direction.
Thanks John

Try this link. There is lots of info here. I built a machine a few years ago and it works very well. You will end up spending $1000 by the time you are done. Foamworks seems to be the best software to run mine. I built a 28% Edge completly with the machine. It helps if you know how to use a Cad progam already.

I have been also looking at building a cnc foam cutter and I think I have all the parts for the mm2001 board. My hangup was taking the time to build it. Then I threw in another item which was a small cnc mill. Now I am looking at a dual purpose control so I don't have to build two.
There is also a Yahoo forum that you could also have a look at
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/cncfoamcutters/
There are pro's and cons on software and also hardware.
