Using these unfinished wood van - shaped crafts is easy. First, peel off the protective paper backing that comes on most of them. This paper is there to keep the wood safe during laser cutting and shipping. If you need a hole in the shape, let the seller know the size and location of the hole, and they'll add it for free. You can use these crafts for various DIY projects. They're made from cabinet - grade Baltic birch plywood in different thicknesses (1/8 (3mm), 1/4 (6mm), or 1/2 (12mm)). If you want a different thickness, just send a message to the seller. For maintenance, keep them in a dry place to prevent warping or damage. The products are sanded, but you can sand them further if you need a smoother finish. They're shipped within 24 hours, so you'll get them quickly to start your projects right away.
