City all layers shown. To laser cut I separated the elements into layers. the streets layer is 1/8" thick draft board shown below.
as stated above the layers are separated into rectangular Panels to be laser cut. The black lines shown below are scored the red lines are cuts.
All of the street markings are cut. these cuts are filled with yellow and white acrylic to represent the street marking colors. Sizes of markings are scaled per New York Highway Department Street mark standards.
the other sewers and street manholes are filled with 3D laser printed sewer covers and storm grates shown in other threads.
the exact size of the cuts comes from a .DXF image of the top view of the 3D model in Rhino 7 superimposed into as a 2D image into Corel Draw.
the streets and sidewalks painted concrete gray.
Sidewalk layer is cut from 1/4" thick draft board
Automotion FX paths, these paths are for the magnetic wires. the paths are laser engravings engraved in the UNDERSIDE of each panel.
to engrave, the image below is mirrored, and the reverse side of the panel is engraved with the wiring engrave path. Each panel will have its associated wire(s) installed so that when all the street panels are all in place the Automotion FX wire paths will connect.
I have several Automotion FX switches that will be used to re-direct the cars in different paths as well as into (and out of) each gas station shown below.
