I made a couple of laser bed nail boards for my Creality Falcon Module on my Ender 3 V2.

I originally made this model for a nail board, that used the bamboo cutting board from Dollar Tree.

I started by making a template in Fusion 360 and exporting a DXF file for LightBurn. (The export is completely doable with a personal license - with just a few extra steps)

And glued some magnets on the bottom to keep them from moving around.

I used:

2 ea. Dollar Tree Bamboo board

1 ea. Dollar Tree 9 x 13 Aluminum pan

3 ea. Home Depot #16 x 1-1/4in Wire Nails (1oz package)

    What is the nail board for? (I just googled “3d printing nail board” and didn’t come up with anything that looks similar to this, so I’m not sure if this is a common tool for FDM printers… seems like it’d be hard to print on, though.)

      It’s not for 3d printing. It’s a riser for laser cutting objects. I have the Creality laser module (10W) attached and instantly burned a hole in my Carborundum Glass Build Plate.
      The 10W is capable of burning a 3/4 inch hole in wood (who knew /s).
      So, i looked around at what other laser cutters were using, and build my own.
