MikeA,
Here's how I do it.
I simply make a break in the profile midway along one entity. I cut a lot of carbon fibre laminate, so the break is such that it leaves around a .140 inch gap between the broken entities. Using a 1/8th cutter, it leaves enough of a tab (maybe .050 inch?) to break off quite easily. If you are cutting balsa, or something softer, the tab may have to be a bit wider. I will use these tabs on 2 or three areas of the profile, if needed.
Depending on the cutter size you are using, you may have to experiment a bit with the gap width.
Hope this made sense.
