Instruction

Step1: Placement

Ensure that you have a piece of material big enough to fit all the elements on. This design involves scoring for placement, engraving and cutting. So ensure that the cutting settings are correct for the type of material you are using. 

 

Place the design onto the material using the laser camera. When happy with the placement press process.

Once the design is finished, remove from laser. If you so wish then use the base plate guide lines to paint the shape.  Do this for all the shapes. You can choose one colour or mix and match.

Step3: Assembly

To assemble the design you will need wood glue.  Dab glue around the bottom layer and place the top layer, press down and secure until dry. 

 

For the ‘cut outs’. I wanted to use mini door hadles but these worked out too expensive so I found these cut little wooden buttons in my local shop and they worked a treat. 

 

Place a spot of glue on the top of the cut out and place the ‘handle’ on top. Wait for it to dry and then the resources can be used!
