Introduction

– Laser Cut Plywood Wall Art

In this Sample Club project, we’re sharing a free downloadable design for a beautiful laser-cut wall hanging made from basswood plywood. Download the AI, CDR, or SVG file below and create the project on your own laser system from start to finish!

In the step-by-step tutorial, you’ll learn how to set up the design file, optimize your laser settings, cut the project cleanly and accurately, and apply primer and paint for a polished final piece.

Step 1: Prepare Artwork

To start, in our design software we’ll select our first design. Print the file to the Laser Dashboard, choosing “Selection Only”.

Step 2: Artwork Setup in Laser Dashboard

In the Laser Dashboard, position your artwork, then change the Process Type to “Vector”. Input your laser settings. For this project we are using a Fusion Ascent 12 60 watt machine with the settings 25% Speed, 100% Power, and 10% Frequency. Once your artwork is properly positioned, print it to the Laser.

Step 3: Run the Jobs at the Laser

At the laser, select the first file and press the start button to begin cutting. Repeat with the remaining layers after setting up your next plywood sheet.

Step 4: Spray Paint Plywood

After all of the layers are cut out, prime and spray paint each layer and allow them to dry before hanging up. We used Rustoleum Filler Sandable Primer and MTN 94 spray paint in the colors “Mars Orange” and “Pegasus Blue”.
