Design Manual

Your file must contain only the cutting lines and paths and a single part design per file. To get an accurate price for your parts, your design should be free from dimensions, notes, edges, and objects that shouldn’t be fabricated.

Each file must contain exactly one part. Multiple designs in a single file are not allowed and must be submitted separately.

Your designs should be free of open endpoints and intersections. Our process treats all lines in your design as cuts, so an open area will lack a complete cut, and an area with intersections will result in excess cuts.

Make sure your designs don’t contain any of these elements unless they are absolutely necessary.

There are fantastic fonts out there, but we don’t have all existing typefaces on our cutting machines. To prevent any misinterpretation of your text, we need you to convert the text to outlines.

Engraving is possible, but every engraved feature must be unambiguously and bindingly defined in a technical PDF drawing. The drawing must contain the exact labelling, description and position of all engraved features (lines, holes, text, etc.). The DXF file is intended exclusively for cutting — without a clear specification in the technical documentation, engraving will not be performed.
