Step 4 - Assemble the Panels

Layout the panels on the floor to ensure that everything lines up. Start with the top panels and connect the to the ceiling using the hooks. Work across and then down, using the "S" hooks to connect the panels. Once completed, stand back and admire the view!

Tips

  • Using pre-finished wood means that there are less finishing step for top quality results
  • Cleaning off the smoke residue before lifting the panels out of the lasers with a damp cloth makes it easier to see if you missed any spots.
  • Using pliers to manipulate the "S" hooks while assembling makes it easier for the panels to be attached together.
  • Using frosted acrylic instead of wood for a few panels adds a nice decorative touch.
