Introduction
A separable storage box makes everyday organization easier because each section can be used together or taken apart when needed.
With laser cutting, you can turn 3mm plywood into a clean, practical organizer for stationery, craft tools, small accessories, or desktop items.
This project is simple, useful, and easy to customize for different storage needs.

Before your work begins
Make sure the Thunder Bolt is connected and operating normally
Prepare a clean, dry, and flat 3mm plywood sheet
Check the exhaust system and air assist before cutting wood
Check the slot and divider design before assembly
Operational Process
STEP01
Prepare & Position the Material
Place the 3mm plywood flat on the laser work bed and make sure the surface is clean, dry, and stable.
Check that the plywood is not warped, because a flat sheet helps the laser cut the storage box parts more accurately. If needed, use pins or magnets to keep the material from moving during cutting.
STEP02
Import & Adjust the Design File
Import the separable storage box design into your laser software and adjust the size to fit your plywood sheet.
Check all cut lines, slot positions, and connection areas before processing. Since this is a removable storage box, make sure the separate parts and dividers match the material thickness so they can fit together smoothly after cutting.
STEP03
Set the Correct Laser Focus
Set the correct laser focus before cutting the plywood.
Good focus helps the laser cut through the 3mm plywood cleanly and keeps the edges of each organizer piece neat. This is especially important for a laser cut storage box because tight slots and small connecting parts need clean, accurate edges.
STEP04
Frame the Design ＆ Start Laser Cutting
Run the Frame function first to confirm that the full separable storage box design fits within the plywood sheet.
Make sure the frame stays inside the material and leaves enough space around the edges. Once the position is correct, start cutting and stay near the machine to watch for smoke, flame-ups, or material movement.
STEP05
Post Processing
Remove the cut plywood pieces from the laser bed and clean off any dust or soot from the edges.
Assemble the storage box according to the design, fitting each divider, side panel, and base piece into place. After assembly, you can use the separable organizer as one complete box or take sections apart for more flexible desktop and shelf storage.
