Morning All,
I have downloaded all of the files for the Triton build. 
On my HMS Echo cross section, I used rubber glue to place the paper cutouts on the wood so they could be cut out. I found this not a particularly good solution as the glue would quite often let go.. 
For this section I have taken the assembly pdfs and imported them into Lightburn to see if I could separate out the frames only and place them onto the Lightburn working area. Shown below are the forward and abaft components for the 4th frame.
Since the frames are symmetrical for both sides I only needed to copy the relevant ones for the opposing side.
I plan to lightly vector etch the wood. I had considered cutting them on the laser but the charred edges would need cleaning up. Any thoughts pro or con for doing that?
I am combing the pdfs and the wood sections. Best I can make out is that all timbers on each frame are the same thickness at 5mm thickness.
