Re: Weight Saving Techniques

Try to figure out how much stress a part is going to encounter (remember safety factor, it's better to be close to the weight limit than to have important parts failing at comp). Then design with thickness and pocketing according to predicted stress. There's plenty of resources online with strength data on all kinds of materials.
