Guitar magnet

Step by step instruction

In only a few steps you can make this fridge magnet made out of veneer wood.

Preparation

Used material:

1 sheet wood veneer oak 3 mm
magnet foil approx. 20 x 35 mm or round magnet

Machine used:

Speedy 360, 80 watts
2" lens
Nozzle with small hole
Honeycomb cutting tabletop

For this application sample you can use any laser machine from the Speedy series.

Tip:

Step by Step

Step 1: Import the design file

Create your own design or use our template. Send it to the laser with the recommended laser parameters given.

Print settings:

Process mode	Resolution	Cut line
Standard	500 dpi	none

Halftone	Others
Color	enhanced geometries, inner geometries first

Step 2: Laser process wood

Place the material on the honeycomb cutting table in your laser and cover the rest of the work area to create a stronger vacuum. The parameters can differ depending on the laser machine used and laser power available.

Position the veneer sheet onto the honeycomb cutting tabletop and cover the remaining work area to produce a bigger vacuum.
