Instruction

Step1: Prepping your material

Preview

Start out by sanding your wood very well.
In order for your print to come out well on wood you will need to prime with the a clear coat.
- For this project. I used modge podge spray.

Step2: Masking your image

Preview

First start by bringing in the image you would like to use.
- you can do this by dragging the image over into XCS or just clicking the image icon in the upper left hand corner.
Drag the light blue object over on top of your image.
- Select both objects and click Create Mask on the top panel
Position your image the shape as desired and click done.

Step3: Printing your sticker

Preview

Place your the blue mat down on the base place and stick your vinyl sticker paper one top.
Make sure you are in the inkjet printing setting in processing mode
Print your image.
Once its done DO NOT MOVE your material
- add your blade to the blade module
Change your module mode to Blade cut
- Click Go to Process

Step4: Printing and lasering the witch hat

Preview

Place your wood inside your machine
Make sure you are in the inkjet printing setting in processing mode
Print your image.
Once it's done DO NOT MOVE your material
- replace the inkjet module with the laser module
Change your module mode to lasering on flat surface
- Click Go to Process
Laser your other solid piece as well now that the laser module is in.
- You can change out the wood to some scrap piece if you wish.

Step5: Assembly

Preview

Take your hat and spray it with a sealer. You can use the modge podge spray again here too.
Peel your vinyl sticker and place it on the half diameter piece like shown.
Now glue both the hat and the photo piece on to your backer piece
Turn your piece over and super glue your magnet to the project.
