      Planning on a garden?  I made these to keep track of both my indoor starter plants (start with seeds) that leverages tongue depressors (popsicle sticks) and one for outdoors (mahogany).

Step1: Leveraging precut wood (wooden tongue depressors)

If you want to leverage wooden tongue depressors I lined them up in the xtool, picked one for focus (the ruler icon), then marked the processing area - multiple rectangles (you can also map out the entire area as one but then need to make sure that your veggie labels line up).  

For the wood setting I use the pine plywood settings.  No need to cut as these are already made.  Scoring P50, speed 150.

I use these for my indoor seedlings as they are softer wood.  You can spray with clear enamel paint if you want to use it outside.

Step2: Mahogany Veggie stakes

For external use I leveraged Mahogany as it is better for outdoors.

Place the wood on the bed, auto-focus (ruler icon), set processing area (golf flag) and set the parameters.  I found for Mahogany plywood that I have that to cut need P100 speed 9.  To engrave P50, speed 150.

Process.

Once processed I spray with clear enamel spray paint to ensure it lasts the entire season.

 

Enjoy!
