I tried this once...gluing my wing formers to balsa sheet instead of cardboard.
I thought the same thing "it will be easier to cut".
While it is definitely easier to cut, I had a lot of difficulty following the patterns.
The knife would try to follow grains and paths in the balsa.
I made a mess of a few of the parts.
So, I have never tried it again.
Maybe there is a better quality of balsa wood I could try.
Because it still seems like a good idea for internals.
