 +Inside this zip archive you will find four files, each one having a filename suffix which indicates which material the sheet is intended to be cut from: 
 + 
 +  * _transparent.dxf - Cut these parts from transparent acrylic 
 +  * _light.dxf - Cut these parts from light-colored opaque acrylic 
 +  * _dark.dxf - Cut these parts from dark-colored opaque acrylic 
 +  * _styrene.dxf - Cut these parts from 0.5mm thick white sheet styrene 
 + 
 +**NOTE:** You may choose to cut both the 'light' and 'dark' parts from the same color acrylic but **please note** that the assembly instructions video will refer to parts from the 'light' sheet and the 'dark' sheet, so if you cut your colored parts from a single color you may find it a bit more work when it comes to identifying parts during the assembly process. It's not a severe issue, but worth noting.
