Introduction: Laser Cut Crate
Here is a guide in how to make a weathered looking wooden crate on a laser cutter. The good thing about it, is that it has a more solid bottom, than most lasercut boxes that use box joints.

Step 2: Clamp and Drye

Step 3: Weather Using a Blowtorch
By burning it with a blowtorch it will get a weathered look, afterwards i lightly sanded away the charred bits.
Step 4: Coating It With Bees Wax
By coating it with bees wax, the natural colors of the wood really pops. It also makes it feel less drye.
Step 5: Clean
After coating it, i thoroughly cleaned it with a papertowel.
