This digital download provides meticulously designed laser-ready files, empowering you to craft a delightful small box perfect for storing tiny keepsakes, gifting jewelry, using as a unique prop, or simply adding a touch of whimsical decor to any space.

Inspired by classic pirate lore and adventure, this design features the iconic rounded lid, strap details (achieved through layering or engraving depending on your approach), and sturdy box construction with clean finger joints for easy assembly. It's a rewarding project for laser cutting enthusiasts of all levels.

The files are optimized for materials with a thickness of 3mm to 4mm (approximately 1/8 inch), making it suitable for common laser-friendly materials like birch plywood, MDF, or even acrylic for a different look.

What You'll Receive:

Your purchase includes instant access to a zip file containing the miniature treasure chest design in the following versatile formats:

SVG: The preferred vector format for most laser cutting software (like Lightburn, Glowforge UI), cutting machines (Cricut, Silhouette), and vector editors (Inkscape, Adobe Illustrator). Easily scalable.

DXF: A highly compatible drawing exchange format, widely used with CAD software (AutoCAD) and various CNC/laser control systems.

AI: The native Adobe Illustrator vector file, perfect for users who wish to make advanced edits or adjustments within Illustrator.

PDF: A universal Portable Document Format that is easily viewable and often directly usable by laser software. It can also be used for printing templates if needed.
