Step 3: Assembly

After processing has completed, remove the pieces from the laser. Pieces are organized in size or sequence from bottom right to top left.

Take the largest piece of the elephant head (without ear cut-outs) and insert it into the rearmost slot of the grid elements. Proceed with the other pieces this way, working back to front. When you are finished, the smallest piece should be placed in the frontmost slot.

Finally, turn the elephant head over and slide the rectangular plate through the two slots. This keeps the pieces in place and serves as a suspension eyelet so that you can display your application.
