Let somebody laser FT Tiny Trainer parts?

I am from Europe. Hence, shipping costs for ordering the set is not an option.

Started to print the plans on several A4 sheets, glued them together, taped the large plans on the foam boards and started to cut out the parts.
It's a really inaccurate and cumbersome time sink. Not the experience I am looking for.

Hence, I thought about to let somebody laser the parts out of the foam board for me.

The outlines are self-explanatory, but how to deal with the cuts, going through the top layer and the foam, but not the bottom layer?
How is this done in the original sets?

I have access to a Silhouette Cameo 3 cutter, but close to zero experience with it, sadly.
It is designed to cut vinyl foils and the like, but not as thick materials as the foam board.
But maybe with several passes and an adopted knife like the CB09?

I also have a Prusa MK3s in my tool belt and could print fixtures, toolholders, adapters, ...

Has anybody tried this or something similar?

Worse case just repair the cut through portions: bit of glue and tape covering. Or speed up the head so it cant cut through.
