Re: Gussets

We have a fairly unique situation (a laser cutter), but we've had success using 1/4" birch plywood for gussets.

It would be easy to make gussets like those on a band saw and drill press instead of a laser cutter.

Re: Gussets

We have a shear, a brake, and a finger brake in our shop. Many of our gussets are made from scarp pieces of aluminium as they are needed. It takes just a few minutes to cut, drill, and fold the gusset as needed. Then you put it on the robot and drill robot threw the holes in the gusset and attach.
