I ran into some trouble when cutting them because I cut them reflective film up and the film melted in weird ways I then had to peel off the etched film where I rastered images into the sheet. This did however result in a neat rainbow effect of light refraction where the etching happened.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/rrxlA3K.jpg\" width=\"4032\" height=\"3024\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I also ran into trouble with tolerances. Part of my design involved fitting a smaller wooden box into a larger one. I had to sand down the smaller box once it was built in order to get it to fit inside the larger one.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/N4dVVY1.jpg\" width=\"4032\" height=\"3024\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Finally I did some preliminary\u00a0testing before painting and assembly.
