Now, it’s time to set up your xTool M1 for your 3mm plywood. You’ll be working with three layers: one for engraving, one for scoring, and one for cutting. Don’t forget to tweak the power, speed, and number of passes in the software so you can achieve those crisp engravings, precise scoring lines, and clean cuts. Double-check your settings to ensure everything is just right before you dive in!
Once all your pieces are cut out, gently put them together to form your ornament. Next, give it a festive flair with two coats of acrylic paint. While the last coat is still wet, sprinkle on some glitter for that perfect holiday sparkle! Once the paint is completely dry, use some Gorilla Glue to securely fasten all the pieces together. Make sure to let it dry thoroughly before you handle it again.
After the paint and glitter have dried, hold up your fabulous Santa Camera ornament and take a moment to admire your handiwork! Whether you place it on your own Christmas tree or surprise a loved one with it, this personalized ornament is sure to spread joy and bring the festive spirit to your holiday season! Enjoy your creation!
