STEPS FOR LASER USERS:
1. Open your laser software (LightBurn, XCS, Glowforge, etc.).
2. Import the SVG file. The file should load at the correct size automatically. 
   If not, set manually to the dimensions listed above.
3. Arrange the bats on your material as desired.
4. Set laser settings for your material. Example: for 1/8" (3 mm) plywood, 
   use your standard "cut through" power and speed.
5. Preview the job to confirm all cut paths look correct.
6. Cut the design.


STEPS FOR CRICUT USERS:
1. Import the SVG file into Cricut Design Space.
2. Design Space may import at the wrong size. If it does, resize to the 
   dimensions listed above.
3. Use cardstock, stencil material, or light chipboard for best results.
4. Attach the design to your mat and select the proper cut setting.
5. Once cut, tape or glue the bats to walls, doors, or windows.
