  1. Make a DXF drawing of your phenolic leading edge. 
  2. Follow the steps for waterjetting based on the waterjet you're using. Make sure to make extras, like with the G10 fin cores. Use the same settings as for the G10- even though the phenolic is thicker (1/4" inch), this will help you be sure to avoid delamination. 
  3. When waterjetting, make sure to weigh down your part. Since the phenolic pieces are long and thin, there's a higher risk than with the G10 that the cut will be uneven because the part moves around as it's being cut out. 
  4. After waterjetting, file down any burrs.
