Getting Started
•
We recommend using a large flat, clean working surface for assembling your E3.
•
All screws (unless noted) should be installed snug, then rotated one 1 to 2 1/2
turns.
•
Light sanding of the wood surfaces will clean up the marks made by the laser.
•
Painting or applying stain with a clear coat will give added protection to the wood
