For Father's day I made my husband this football shaped momento, from our children
Step 1 load 3mm basswood and pin down with material pins. Upload file from etsy.
Added in personalization.
Step 2 cut out football shape, laces and siding using 3mm basswood presets in xtool software
Step 3 I used acrylic paint to paint the football ball brown, laces and football stripes white.
Let dry.
Step 4. Laser engrave wording using x tool presets for 3mm basswood.
Step 5 Painted children's hands and had both of them press imprints onto football. Again using acrylic paint.
Step 6 Using wood glue, glue on football stripes and laces.
Gift is ready after glue dries! Enjoy!
