How-to: Wooden Badge With Safety Pin

Instruction. How-to make wooden badge with safety pin.

Cut and engrave badge using laser mashine.
Material: Birch plywood.
Red line - cut. Black line - engrave.

Information for inversion engraving

At first I put a dark stain on birch plywood, then varnish, dry, grind.
Or, you can just paint wooden blank.

Objective: Remove the top thin layer of paint from wooden blank and not burn wood.

Parameters for 40 watt laser machine:

• Speed - 300 mm / sec
• Maximum power - 13%
• Interval - 0.1 mm

You may need to experiment with parameters.

After a quick and low-power engraving almost no soot. Soot from the cutted edges of the product can be easily removed with a damp sponge soaked in normal water.

Effect of inversion engraving is stunning.
In this way, we are doing many projects.

Insert safety pin into holes of base.

Apply glue to the base.

Join badge on the base.
Press down.
Allow the glue to dry.

It's ready.
Enjoy!
