I admit it, I am a balsa butcher.
Anything with a straight edge, I am fine with a razor saw, but as far as freehand cutting with a knife, I am hopeless. Hack City.
And that's on standard hobby balsa... I haven't even made the leap to basswood or plywood yet.
What's the best way to cut that stuff? A scroll saw?
Ebay has an imported Electro-Lux mini-jigsaw that looks like it might be good. What about centering rings, elliptical fins, intricately notched TTW fins, etc?
I know we have a lot of woodworking wizards here, I am just trolling for ideas.
