Information

      Cute Easter-themed paperclips that can be used as bookmarks, small gifts, or fun decorations for notebooks and books.
It is recommended to use a type of wood that is flexible and can bend slightly, so the paperclips don’t break when being used.

It’s best to use a wood that can bend slightly, so the paperclips don’t snap.

Adjust the material settings according to your machine.

For my 3 mm poplar plywood, I used:

 

50% power

250 mm/s speed

For engraving, I ran the engraving twice instead of increasing the power, which gave a cleaner result.
