How to Make Your Own Laser Cut Blanks (In Any Shape)

If you have a laser you don't need to buy acrylic blanks for your UV printer or sublimation printer. You can cut your own, shaped exactly like the design you're printing.

And the best part is - you don't have to build a separate cut file to do it. You can make the cut line from the same PNG you're going to print. 

I recently made some acrylic magnets and also some acrylic Christmas ornaments. All of the acrylic ornaments were cut on 3mm clear acrylic on my xTool P2 and printed on my xTool Omni UV printer (which I am obsessed with). Any CO2 laser will work for this - including the lowest price CO2 laser I've found - the Flux Beamo.
