Set up your project by configuring the xTool M1 with the correct settings for your 3mm plywood. First, set up the engraving layer for detailed features, followed by the cutting layer to shape the reindeer. If you want to personalize it, add another engraving layer for custom details like a name. Be sure to double-check the power and speed settings for accurate and clean cuts and engravings.

Once the reindeer pieces are cut and engraved, it’s time to assemble. Use acrylic paint to add color and details to your reindeer, letting the paint dry completely before proceeding. For assembly, use Gorilla Glue to secure the pieces together, then attach the reindeer to its base for stability.
