General Information

My first ever project on my x-carve. Made for the Holiday Contest. This is best made using .25" material, because that is how it was designed.

Step 1: Use Easel to cut out pieces

60 minutes

Open the Easel file, and position the parts to fit your size material. If you have a 500mm x-carve (like me) you will need to do do multiple cuts.

Step 2: Sand the pieces

20 minutes

sand the edges of the pieces to de-burr and smooth the edges. For the +’s inside the circles, I found the best way sand them is to fold up a piece of sandpaper and slide it inside the + as shown in the picture

3

Step 3: Assemble the tree

10 minutes

Assemble the tree to test fit the pieces to make sure it all fits together. Then, take apart the tree and lay the pieces out.

4

Step 4: Stain or paint

10 minutes

This step is not necessary, but if you would like to, you can stain or paint your tree. Let it dry.

5

Step 5: Assemble the tree and display it

5 minutes

Re-assemble the tree, and display it for all to see!

This will actually fit on a 12x12 piece and not need to be done using anymore material than that. I have the layout but not sure how to share.
