Cottage Lantern
Create your own plywood house lantern - you have 3D preview and SVG files for laser cutting available.
Description
Decorative plywood house generator
Create a decorative plywood house designed for lighting with an electric LED candle or LED lights. Start by selecting a preset model, customize the design to your liking, and preview the final design before cutting.
Generator options
Setting dimensions:Adjust the height, length, and depth of the house using the sliders or by manually entering values.
Proportional scaling:Increase or decrease the entire house while maintaining its proportions and fixed material thickness.
Automatic window arrangement:Utilize automatic window layout with the option for proportional adjustment.
Select window shape:Choose flat or arched windows on the front side, or on both the front and back sides of the cottage.
Removable roof:Create a removable roof from one or two layers of plywood.
Optional Base:Add an extended base with an overhang, made from one or two layers of plywood.
3D preview:View the assembled house in three-dimensional view and check the layout of individual parts for cutting.
Measurement units:Toggle between millimeters and inches.
Export SVG:Export SVG cutting files with parts laid out on material sheets, individual parts separately, or a test pattern to verify the accuracy of joints.
How to start
First, choose one of the preset models and enter the actual thickness of the plywood you will be using.
Then adjust the dimensions of the house, the placement and shape of the windows, the structure of the roof and the foundation. Before production, check the result in the preview and export the prepared cutting files.
Technical information
SVG files are exported in millimeters at a scale of 1 : 1 and include set kerf width compensation.
The production package for download also includes instructions for assembling the house.
Recommendations for Production
The generator is designed for laser cutting plywood.
To achieve precise joints, adjust the cut width compensation and joint clearance according to the properties of the material used and your laser equipment.
Before cutting the entire house, we recommend performing a test cut of the joints to ensure they fit correctly.
Important: Use only electric LED candles or LED lights to illuminate the cottage. Do not use candles with an open flame.
