Crafters, designers, and creators can use laser cutting files to cut or etch/engrave designs, shapes, words, or patterns on a wide range of materials. It also includes cutting those materials down into smaller pieces, often assembled into a larger handmade product. Laser cutting machines are newer to the crafting and hobby world but have been around for many years in other settings and can add an exciting dimension to your craft projects.
While etching and engraving can be used on almost any surface (including marble and cardboard), cutting is limited due to its mechanically intense nature. Some of the more commonly used materials for cutting include cork, various wood, acrylic, paper, and leather. And while the materials used are somewhat limited, the projects are certainly not! Using laser SVG files with your laser cutting machine can essentially replace the process of manually carving out pieces of materials to create pieces of art, which is a tedious, error-ridden task.
However, the process is cleaner with the right laser engraving machine and the final product neater. Using the engraver also makes creating fine, complex, and repetitive details a walk in the park. With the right settings, like wattage and speed, crafters can produce any design they want in a matter of seconds, depending on the complexity of the laser cutting design. There are files specifically for cutting paper or plastic, wood, and more with every possible pattern and design you could imagine. Be sure to check out our selection of free laser cutting files!
