Step 1

Step 1: Tree

Open our design template "Wood-Tree" for the tree made of MDF and the wooden hooks.

Feel free to customise the design to your children's style. For example, add their favorite animals or your child's name.

Put the wood panel in your SP1500 (200 Watts) and make sure that the smoother side is facing up. Use the small nozzle and the 2.5 inch lens to create perfect cutting edges.

WE USED THE FOLLOWING LASER PARAMETERS:

Cutting: Power: 87% - Speed: 0.6% - Frequency: 1000Hz -
Air Assist: Gas1
Cutting-in: Power: 3% - Speed: 2% - Frequency: 1000Hz -
Air Assist: ON
Engraving: Power: 20% - Speed: 100% - Frequency: AUTO -
Air Assist: ON

We recommend using a fine sandpaper to smooth the edges and remove dust.

Step 3: Assembly

Mount the hooks on the tree with screws. Choose the appropriate position for the hooks based on your child's height. When applying the laminates, make sure there is no dust residue on the wood. The tree looks too boring? Paint the wooden parts with vibrant colors!
