Supplies

  1. Attached .SVG file containing vectors for both 3mm and 1.5mm board designs created with Inkscape
  2. Laser Engraver/Cutter (I used 10w Falcon A1, Power=90%, Speed 350mm/m; but should work with any)
  3. 3mm or 1.5mm Basswood (or similar)
  4. Standard Altoids-style/size tin

  1. Using a laser cutter, cut out one of the designs contained in the .SVG file depending on your board thickness
  2. Slide together perpendicular
  3. Insert into tin can (should be a tight fit; may have to slightly flex the tin walls)
