Step1: Idea and Design

I had serveral Ideas how I can create the Figures and a some more motifs like Egg, Cross and little chicken. 
I decided that I only create the bunnys as I liked them the most. 

 

Create Figurines your own:

It's a very simple construction, you first have a circle base, another circle with a cutout and the motif.

For this I used the Bunnys from the XCS Library and inserted them and drew two circles and a rectangle.

Beforehand I measured regular board game figurines to get a hint for my scale. Mine was around 14mm x 25mm. 

  • Base circle is 14 x 14mm
  • Circle with cutout is 11 x 11mm / Cutout is 5 mm x2 mm (Please adjust the 2mm to your material thickness)
  • Bunnys are based on the circle with cutout

For the Bunnys we need to add also a rectangle on the bottom with the same dimensions as for the cutout. Thats the piece for glueing together and make it a bit sturdier. Use the combine feature and were ready to cut!

Step2: Cutting

Turn on your Smoke Purifier and Air Assist if available. 

Place your material inside your laser, I used the prisms as I don't own the honeycomb.

For my 2 Sets of 4 it took round about 3min.

As mentioned in the beginning, it's very easy to assemble the figurines.

  1. Place your 3 pieces needed in a row
  2. Take the cutout circle and apply glue on back
  3. Place it onto the solid circle and put some preassure on it to make it stick
  4. Now take the Bunny and add glue to the added rectangle on the bottom, apply on all sides and place inside the cutout.

And now it's done!

I hope you liked this idea, you can use any other silhouette or add engravings and use it for a lot more games as you might think.

Have fun playing your favorite games with some custom figurines :)

Thanks if you like it and stay creative! ~ Anzy
