Buzz, I cut my longer pieces in two on my cnc and then tacked the two pieces to a longer solid piece of mdf(or 1/4" plywood, hardwood, or whatever you have on hand). I then used this to pattern cut a master making one solid piece. After pattern cutting I made sure the length was correct and then I pattern cut the rest of the pieces from mdf by using this master. I hope this makes sense. This worked for me and I could cut the parts out faster by pattern cutting than I could with my cnc.
