You can instead design your 2D parts directly in a vector graphics program. This software is much easier to use, but you’ll have to keep track of how your parts fit together on your own. By performing boolean operations on 2D primitives, you can lay out the shapes that you want to laser cut and design a way for the sides to fit together.

Overview

Submit a laser cutter ready 2D version of your bridge. It should be either .svg or .pdf, and sized to cut 12" x 24" plywood.

Be sure the design should follow the dimensions and constraints described here: Plywood Bridge.

Your file should be submitted as an attachment via t-square.
