If you don't have access to a laser cutter, you might want to look up one of your local corrugated board suppliers or a box manufacturer. Most plants have a designer on staff with a cutting table. A cutting table can cut from DXF files with minor conversion, or directly from an HPG or ACS file. If the designer is a bit of geek (very likely), he or she may cut it for you for free from scrap stock if you let them use the file how they want.

Also, it's called "corrugated board", "corrugated paperboard" or just "corrugated" when it has the liner paper(s) combined with a fluted or corrugated paper.

Hello RobMeyer, I took the circles to the laser cutter guys and they said they cannot cut an SVG format. How do i convert the svgs to DXF or pdf they need. Again how big is the biggest circle? can it fit on an A3 cardboard?
Thanks

Wow - that looks great! Very Jovian.

Any chance for a pic with light shining through?

It's still a work in progress but I will continue adding pictures as I go.

May want to add a registration mark, to help people line up the layers in a spiral, like you did.
