Operational Process
STEP01
Prepare & Position the Material
Choose a flat 3mm plywood board and place it on the laser honeycomb bed. A stable, flat sheet helps keep engraving details clear and cutting edges accurate.
Secure the plywood if needed to prevent shifting during engraving and cutting, especially because this model includes many small parts.
STEP02
Import & Adjust the Design File
Import the windmill house model design into LightBurn and check whether your plywood size is large enough. Since there are many parts, carefully review the file and make sure nothing is missing.
Double-check the engraving and cutting parameters before starting. Proper laser compensation and power settings help the parts fit together cleanly during assembly.
STEP03
Set the Correct Laser Focus
Accurate focusing is important for achieving clean engraving details and smooth cutting edges on plywood. If your machine has auto focus, use it for quick setup. For manual focusing, lower the laser head with the focus stick until it touches the plywood surface at the correct angle.
STEP04
Start Engraving & Cutting
Use the Frame function to outline the engraving and cutting area. Make sure the projected frame matches your plywood sheet and the design stays within the material boundary.
Once everything is aligned, start the laser job. Stay near the machine while it’s running and monitor the cutting process carefully, especially when processing many small model parts.
STEP05
Post Processing
When the plywood laser cutting is complete, carefully remove all model pieces from the laser bed. Check that each part is fully cut and ready for assembly.
Assemble the model from bottom to top and from inside to outside. You can also build the base, windmill, house, and ladder separately, then combine the modules for a faster and cleaner assembly process.
