Step 2: Laser Cutting

To begin, prepare your design file and adjust it to fit your cutting area. Then, proceed with cutting the wood. As this project involves 5 layers, you can streamline the process by dividing it into two cutting sessions: one for 2-3 layers and another for the remaining layers.

Setting: 450mm/min, 90%power, Air assist on

Step 3: Painting & Assembling

After cutting the wooden layers, proceed to paint them for added vibrancy. Use acrylic markers or a paintbrush for precision. Once painting is complete, assemble the layers in the order of the design, starting from the back and moving to the front.
