Tips:

  • Make sure the acrylic is flat and even before laser-cutting; misfocus would cause poor finishing result.
  • Pay attention to the sizes of tenons. Take the following picture as example, if the convex surface is 5 mm, the concave surface needs to be shortened to 4.2-4.4 mm, so that the acrylic can be tightly jointed.
