Wooden Toy Airplane

thingiverse

This week we're laser cutting and engraving an awesome wooden toy airplane on our Speedy 300 laser machine! We use 1/8" MDF wood. We made this plane in our TroSpace Makerspace in Calgary, AB. The space is open for educators and those in the Makerspace and Fablab movements.

The red hairline outline (0.001") represents the cut line, and it should be RGB Red, with fill RGB Black and Turquoise representing different engraving levels.

Engraving setting: 85 Power, 85 Speed Cutting setting: 85 Power, 0.9 Speed Laser Engrave the MDF Laser Cut the MDF Step 3: Assembly Assembly is minimal since there aren't a lot of parts. You'll need crazy glue to attach all the parts and hinges together.
