Sailboat shelf laser cut

Here's another laser cutting project from the DXFdownloads site: Sailboat shelf. The design in lightburn looks like this:

As usual cutting the design on the Adelaide Maker Space Thunder was straightforward.

Then came the task of how to support the shelf. My friend Pat helped again by suggesting a second smaller 3mm shelf with some 45 degree angular supports.

This was, you would think, a simple design but being a very rusty inkscape user I had to view some tutorials and also look online for hints. Finally I found the idea of putting some rectangular design pieces together and then tracing around them with the bezier tool!

To finish of required a little PVA wood working glue.
