Wow!

So you've upscaled a xerox of the lasered boards, and plan to build it with scale lumber? You must get snowed in a lot. Please keep us posted.

Go for it!

I've been buying favorite Campbell kits and making photocopies of the plans with the same thing in mind. It looks like a new Dremel table saw blade is in order?

Colin Gap Sawmill, from scratch

With any complicated project, I recommend you break it down to manageable sub-assemblies...this way you will see concrete progress as you move along....cool project!
