The design you posted is small. small enough that increasing by 50% would still fit on one sheet in the forge. Shrinking it by 25% would make for a tiny rocket.
Note: There seem to be some gaps in the nose section of the 4 small pieces ( top of the sheet) that will result in the part not being cut from the sheet.
a 4 mm gap would shrink to 3 mm if you reduced the size of the part by 25% (or in inkscape scaled the part by 75%.) Your 3 mm thick material would not change so it would fit nicely.
I have fixed the issues with those 4 tanks and created 2 versions, one for 3 mm and one for 6 mm (or double the 3 mm parts).
Here’s an equation for fixing the slots on any pattern. Measure the thickness of your material and subtract the kerf width – that’s your desired slot size (DS). Now measure the width of the slots in your pattern (S), and also make note of the total pattern width (P).
Multiply DS * P, then divide by S. That’s the width you need to scale the pattern to in order to have your desired slot size.
I had to look that up, because I had never heard it before. so for others like me/
“Bob’s your uncle” is a phrase commonly used in Ireland, the United Kingdom and Commonwealth countries that means “and there it is” or “and there you have it” or “It’s done”. Typically, someone says it to conclude a set of simple instructions or when a result is reached.
That’s not what “begs the question” means. Traditionally it meant that the speaker was assuming the conclusion but has more recently come to mean “suggests the question”.
You are correct though that in the traditional sense that it’s a circular fallacy. That’s no longer the case as the language & usage has evolved.
