COMMENTS: Highly recommended to practice making slots on scrap balsa before
using the Slot Machine on your model. The Slot Machine works far
better than a hobby knife for making slots in thin balsa and
fragile structures because you do not have to push so hard while
cutting. One thing to be aware of is when cutting into thin
material, the possibility is greater of the blades coming out of
the wood during the cut, due to misalignment or technique.
