  1. Open the file in XCS, the file is divided into 3 canvas. 
  2.  Open your canvas and select the first one, cut two layers out. (front and back). Mine is made of MDF from home depot and it has a rough underside so I have one of the pieces mirrored as to hide it when put together.
  3. Adjust your setting according to the material of your choosing
  4. next cut you middle layer, canvas 2, this is the layer that will hold your acrylic peices so make sure they are all the same thickness. 
  5. then finally cut your acrylic pieces, I have the peices groued according to the colors I used in my piece, but make sure to ungroup and group them the way/in the colors you want and adjust your setting accordingly before cutting.

glue your middle layer to one of your outer (back) layer and arranges your acrylic pieces.
