About this 3D model
This is an SVG file created in Inkscape that can be used to create a zoetrope. There are 21 slats that need to have images placed on them. You need a laser cutter with at least a 12 inch by 24 inch bed. This design uses any material which is about 6 mm thick. I use Midwest Plywood 24x12 inch poplar plywood (6mm thick). However, I suggest getting baltic birch plywood. It's about a $1 more per sheet but I think it will look a lot better.
