Import our design template into your graphic program. You can then adapt it to your requirements.

Important information:

Our template is designed for 3 mm material. Please adapt the size of the connectors according to the thickness of your wood.

Position the wood sheet onto your laser cutting table and cover the rest of the table with your chosen material (such as paper) to maximise the exhaust power. You can now engrave and cut the various parts.

TIPS:

• We used the standard laser parameters from JobControl optimised for speed to create this sample
• The material parameters of JobControl can be downloaded from www.troteclaser.co.uk
• The more z-offset used for laser engraving, the darker the results will be. At the same time the the engraving detail decreases. We recommend z-offset value of +4 to max. +6 mm for a good result.
• Cutting all of the parts for the airplane from two different woods allows you to create two planes at once.

Once all parts are laser cut and engraved clean the dust from the surface and edges with a damp lint-free cloth. Assemble your airplane (you can use wood glue if necessary to secure the parts).

TIPS:

• The propeller is movable and thanks to the engraved design it is eye catching when spun.
• Clean the material directly in the machine after cutting and engraving.
