Information

      This project was created as a simple and meaningful Mother’s Day gift idea. It combines laser cutting and engraving to create a decorative “Mum Frame” featuring a detailed engraved illustration of a mother and child. The layered frame design adds depth and makes it a thoughtful piece for display.

Instruction

1

Step1: Open the File

Open the design file. You can adjust the size if needed. It is recommended to keep the original settings to avoid reworking later.

Place the MDF board into the laser cutter.

Measure the distance using the automatic sensor and run the frame preview to check the cutting area.

Step4: Engraving and Cutting

Start the process. The design will be engraved and cut. This includes the engraved image (e.g. a mother with a child) and all frame parts.

Afterward, remove all parts and clean the edges.

Attach the frame pieces in the following order:


 

  • First, glue the two shortest pieces at the top and bottom.
  • Then attach the left and right pieces so everything aligns evenly.
  • Add the next top and bottom pieces to ensure a clean edge.
  • Finally, attach the remaining pieces.


 

Using two frame layers is optional but creates more depth and highlights the darker laser-cut edges.
