Hi, Im new to the laser side and ready to start my first print and got it all ready to go except 1 thing. The file im looking to do has all the following and not sure order to do them in. Ive read that inner cut should take place before outer cuts. But what about engraving lines and lettering, should they go before I do the inner cut or after the inner cut and before the outer cuts? This might be a stupid question but Im trying to actually get it correct the first time. I have a XTool D1 Pro 20 watt laser that i plan on using for this cut.

      Apart from having the outer cuts last (you don’t want the objects falling out or moving) I would say it is a matter of personal preference. I always engrave first then inner cuts then outer cuts
