Default Die smash hint

If the sheets are die-smashed instead of laser cut, turn the sheet over, use 200 grit sandpaper, and LIGHTLY sand the entire sheet. Accomplishes two things...1) sanding always smooths surfaces, and 2) will "cut" through any of the raised area created by the die-smasher, thereby helping separate the parts more cleanly from the sheet.

Happy building!
