Tips and Tricks
1. For easy assembly, we recommend engraving the design into the orange TroGlass
2. The acrylic can be raised from the laser bed using acrylic raisers to reduce the risk of flaming on cut edges
3. Troglass Mirror should be engraved from the reverse side of the material
4. To reduce flashback on TroGlass Mirror, the material can be processed with the front side covered in masking tape
Assembly
Begin by affixing the sun to the orange TroGlass sheet. Once in place, the white and blue waves can be affixed in the right order.
