Step 1: Import the design file
Feel free to create your own unique design or simply use our template. Send it to the laser with the recommended laser parameters below. The parameters may vary depending on the laser machine used and the laser power available.
Print settings:
| Process mode | Resolution | Cut line |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | 500 dpi | none |
| Halftone | Others |

One of the popular wood species: oak
Our varnished oak veneer range is hugely popular and is especially suited for laser processing. Our veneered oak material can be used for a wide range of applications, including signs, gifts, architectural models and more! Create a variety of different guitar models using different laser settings and laserable wooden material.
