Lasersaur CAD Models
The Lasersaur CAD model is available for Rhino (version 4) and FreeCAD (tested with v0.13). We use Rhino 5 for all modelling but FreeCAD works fine as a viewer during the assembly process. Since the UI of FreeCAD is still in its early development check out this Survival Guide to get through some initial roughness.
If you need IGES, STEP, VRML, or STL files. FreeCAD can export all of them. Especially IGES and STEP export is reported to work well due to the proven OpenCascade kernel. It takes about 15min to download FreeCAD and export to any of these formats.

MechParts
The following job files can be used to manufacture the MechParts. The same geometry is contained in the CAD model files but for convenience we also provide them in a nested, ready-to-cut format. Material is 6mm aluminum (6mm acrylic has been reported to work too). NOTE: Double-check for inadvertent scaling in your SVG program. When unsure use the DXF format. Units are millimeters (mm).

Entry Panel
