hi mark my name is jim miller ,I live in shawnigan lake B.C. on Vancouver island
I have the newer plans and have built a 10 foot cnc plasma table .
I just draw each piece on autocad as i go and the machiene cuts the parts.
so the answer to your question is ,the plans are very detailed enough to program a cnc machiene ,most machienes under stand a dxf file type .
anyone who can use autocad can provide you with this typ of file (DXF)
I have completed the fusalage and tail sections and i only got a skid of metal on july 15th 2009 .So it realy helps with the process .
thanks nice talking to you keep in touch

Hi, my plans date back 14 years so NO they would not help in your case.
I've seen the newer sets. They are better but i'mdoubtful as to the newer ones would be adequate.

Hope this helps.

Norm

PS I just don't know what is required to program in a CNC for this to work.
