In the first area, the plywood panel is processed. Here you can choose whether outlets for Easter eggs or continuous boards for sweets should be cut in the ground.

In the first section, the plywood board is processed. Here, you can choose between to cut out holes for Easter eggs in the bottom or continuous boards for candy.

Then the individual parts can be cut out. A 3mm thick plywood panel is required for this. Place them in the workspace and check the settings to make sure they fit your device. Here there are 3 layers for the necessary settings (xTool S1 40W):

1. Cut - Blue: 100% - 17 mm/s

2. Line Engraving - Red: 50% - 100 mm/s

3. Engraving - Black: 35% - 250 mm/s

When inserting the plate, make sure to keep a larger distance on the left so that the laser head has enough room for its movements when engraving.

This step takes about 27 minutes with these settings.

The individual parts can then be cut out. This requires a 3mm thick plywood board. Place it in the work area and check the settings to see if they are suitable for your machine. There are three layers for the necessary settings (xTool S1 40W):

1. Cutting - Blue: 100% - 17 mm/s

2. Line engraving - Red: 50% - 100 mm/s

3. Engraving - Black: 35% - 250 mm/s

When inserting the board, make sure to leave a larger distance on the left so that the laser has enough room to move during engraving.

This step takes approximately 27 minutes with these settings.

In the second area, a 3mm MDF board is required. This is where the decoration for the box is cut. There are again 2 layers for the settings to choose from.

1st cutting - blue: 100% - 12 mm/s

2nd engraving - red: 50% - 100 mm/s

The MDF requires lower settings than the plywood board to cut through the material.

This step will take approximately 5 minutes with these settings.

The picture shows again which individual parts are needed. Once all the parts needed for this project have been cut, assembly can begin.

Start with the side walls. To do this, apply some glue to the underside of the MDF boards and press it into position on the side walls. I used wood glue with a short setting time. In addition, a few drops of superglue can also be applied to fix the parts faster.  

Start with the side panels. Apply a little glue to the underside of the MDF boards and press them into place. I used wood glue with a short setting time. You can also add a few drops of superglue to fix the pieces more quickly.

To ensure that the pieces fit tightly and do not slip until the glue holds, clips or clothespins can be used to fix them. 

To ensure that the pieces fit tightly and do not slip until the glue sticks, clips or clothespins can be used to fix them.

Depending on the glue, the clips can be removed after just one minute and our side walls are ready for the next steps.

Depending on the adhesive, the clamps can be removed after just one minute and our side panels are ready for the next steps.

Next, the floor plates are connected to the main walls. Apply small dots of glue to the underside of the walls next to the outlets for the floor plates so that they don't fall apart later. The panels can be easily inserted into each other with a little force. 

Next, the floor panels are connected to the main walls. Apply small dots of glue to the underside of the walls next to the floor panel outlets to prevent them from falling apart later. The panels can be easily inserted into each other with a little force.

Once this has been achieved, the walls can be attached. Again, apply small dots of glue to the underside of the side walls next to the outlets for the main walls. The walls can then be put back together with a little force.

Once that's done, the walls can be attached. To do this, apply small dots of glue to the underside of the side walls next to the outlets for the main walls. The walls can then be pushed back together with a little force.

The easiest way to plug it together is to place the side wall on the table and insert the main wall from above. Work carefully so that no parts are damaged. All parts can be put together a bit strictly.

In the end, we're far from done. There are no limits to creativity. The box can be further processed with paint or try something new and dare to flame the surface with a flambé burner. This gives the whole thing a rustic look. With this look and the surprises that can be placed in it, you can make your loved ones happy at Easter.

The box can be further enhanced with paint, or try something new and dare to burn the surface with a gas burner. This gives the whole thing a rustic look. This look, along with the surprises you can put inside, will make your loved ones very happy this Easter.
