Planetary Gear Calling Card Vector File for Laser Cutting

Discover a precision-engineered vector template for a mesmerizing mechanical greeting — the Planetary Gear Calling Card. This laser-ready vector file lets makers, crafters and small manufacturers cut a compact, kinetic card featuring interlocking planetary gears that rotate smoothly when assembled. Perfect for laser cutters, CNC routers, and other digital fabrication tools, the design is optimized for layered materials such as birch plywood, MDF, acrylic, and heavy cardstock.

What you get
- Instant digital download of editable vector files (SVG, DXF, AI, EPS, PDF) ready for laser cutting and CNC routing.
- Detailed, cut-ready outlines and alignment guides for accurate assembly.
- Design optimized for common material thicknesses (3–6 mm); kerf allowances and simple adjustments explained in the included notes.
- One-page compact mechanism ideal for demonstration pieces, unique business cards, promotional gifts, educational models, and maker fair giveaways.

Why choose this template
