Step 1: Cutting the Parts
-------------------------------
First we need to cut all the required parts in the laser cutter.
We us Visicut at our local makerspace to create the gcode for the laser cutter.

I took the liberty to create 3 nested files containing all required parts.
They are made for 450mmx600 3mm sheet material. (nested450-600sheet1.dxf, nested450-600sheet2.dxf, nested450-600sheet3.dxf )

If you have another laser bed size you will need the following files to be cut.
150x link.dxf
11x side.dxf
1x er27.dxf (e14)
1x top.dxf

Step 2: Preparation
-------------------------
Wood: Use some sanding paper with fine grit (160 or higher) to clean up burn marks from the laser…
