[SML] question for router wizards

I would suggest an ellipse cutting jig for what you are doing. It is easy
to make and very accurate. Much simpler and more appealing, to me at least,
than making a bunch of templates with a saber saw and sanding and flipping.
Just make an adapter to mount your router to the end of the arm. Drill
holes for each of your foci and screw the arm through the appropriate holes
to the sliders in the jig. I would use a 1x3 or 4 for the arm for the size
you are doing for rigidity.
Here is a Diagram:
