Tank cutout V2 in wood – silhouette, 5–50 cm

A small leaving gift at the end of military service. A crafting afternoon with the children. Or a diorama that still needs the right vehicle. This wooden tank cutout gives you a clear silhouette to paint, cover or decorate however you like. The V2 tank cutout is untreated. You can choose widths from 5 to 50 cm. It's made for your next craft project.

What changes for you

• You start straight away with decorating instead of sawing. The silhouette arrives laser cut with smooth edges.
• Your project gets exactly the right size, from a small hanging tag to a large decoration. You can choose from 5 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• You decide whether to paint, oil or cover it. The wood is left natural and takes paint and glue well.
• You can plan larger activities without stress, such as a crafting afternoon with children or a club event. Simply order the cutout singly or as a set of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces.
• You give something with character. Every piece comes from Bütic's own production in Pößneck. As a natural product, each one is unique.

Why this wooden cutout makes a difference every day

Handmade pieces feel different from things bought off the shelf. Whoever holds them can tell that someone put thought into them. With a ready-made silhouette, you can do this without a saw or workshop. You focus on colour, design and details. The result still looks neat and well thought out. An idea at the kitchen table becomes a gift or decoration that really tells a story.

Material & finish

• 3 mm thick plywood. Light enough for hanging and covering, yet it holds its shape.
• Laser cut with smooth edges. You don't need to sand anything, and there are no rough edges to hurt yourself on.
• Top side with contour cut, underside left natural. The front shows clear lines, the back stays plain.
• Untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. Paints, oils and glue stick directly to the wood.
• Wood is a natural material. Variations in shade, grain and small knots are part of it and make every piece unique. This is not a flaw but character.
• Made in Thuringia, Germany.

How to use the tank cutout

• Crafting with children: every child paints their own silhouette. At the end of the afternoon, each one proudly takes a finished piece home.
• Make a money gift: glue folded notes onto the deck or into the turret. The usual envelope becomes a gift people will talk about for a long time.
• For model making and dioramas: the flat silhouette adds a background or decorative element to your scene. No hours of sawing needed.
• For birthdays or theme parties: spread several sizes across the table. The table instantly has a consistent theme.

Good to know about laser cutting

During laser cutting, the wood heats up slightly at the cut edge. That is where the typical brown edge comes from. This has two advantages for you. The edges are smooth and ready to use. And the dark outline frames the silhouette by itself, so the shape is clearly recognisable even unpainted.

Care & durability

There isn't much you need to do. Store the untreated cutout in a dry place and avoid constant moisture. The wood then keeps its shape and stays light. If you paint or oil it, you protect the surface even more and the colours stay fresh for a long time.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or cover the cutout? Yes. The wood is untreated and natural. You can paint it, oil it, cover it or decorate it in other ways.

Is the cutout suitable for outdoor use? The wood is untreated, so it is mainly intended for indoor use. For outdoor use, protect it first with a suitable paint or oil.

How tall is the figure at my chosen width? The proportions stay the same. At a width of 12 cm, the height is 7 cm. From this you can work out the height for any other width.

Why do the cutouts look slightly different? Wood is a purely natural material. Shade, grain and small knots vary. That is exactly what makes every piece unique.

The best part isn't the plywood silhouette itself. It's the moment your finished piece lies in front of you – painted, labelled, given away – and looks exactly as you imagined. Just choose your width and quantity and get started.
