|  Riddle Me This... ... Riddle me that, who's afraid of the big black bat? But seriously, I have a 3x3 1/8 plywood which I would like to cut a design and then cut in half, so I have a 3x3 1/32 piece. Any ideas?

| good luck. I would think getting 2 pieces 1/32 thick would work better. Otherwise, try seperating the plys first, then cutting the design. T |

| I would agree with Theresa. Try doing a stacked cut, that will give you the doubled image. The thinest plywood I remember seeing was 1/16".

| I agree with the above that the only way this can be done is to stack cut several layers of 1/32" ply. Thin plys like this are avaliable at hobby shops that deal with model RC airplanes. Tower Hobbies Plywood 1/32 x 6 x 12" (1). I would place the thin plys between a top and bottom layer of at least 1/8" ply so the thin plys would not tear up as you are cutting them. Hope this helps.

| I once knew of a big black bear that got bit by a big black bug and the big black bear bled where the big black bug bit him, But I don't know who's afraid of the big black bat.

| As mentioned above you need to cut a stack of individual pieces to delaminate (or split wood that thin after the fact is not realistic) I never cut anything thinner than a stack of 1/4. Also if the pattern is delicate make sure you use a backer and a zero clearance insert.
