Information

      You guys have widely accepted my famous night lights and I couldn't let you down without a new mind blowing silhouette fathers day design. This design is guaranteed to put a smile on a father who is crazy about golf. Use a very inexpensive Walmart LED Plug-in or simply display on a desk since it has a double use feature. Ensure to follow on YouTube or on here since I will be releasing a ton of relevant new designs. Please enjoy the really neat easter egg included in this design :)
    

Instruction

1

Step1: Engraving of Design

In this step the laser will engrave the golf ball and Hat.

Helpful Tip: If you decide to color the hat ensure you don't move base material completely out of the laser base. This allows you to color away and place back into cut out slot to run a final light engraving process and keep very clean lines throughout.

Step2: Scoring of Hat Outlines

This process will ensure your hat outlines look pristine. It allows the overall hat to stand out when performing engraving which tends to wash out designs. I always incorporate this process on all my designs that tend to look good without the need for color.

Step3: Laser cut of all components

In this final step the machine will cut out all major components. Please note that I created multiple plates in order to give this design really crazy shadow effects which exaggerate overall design. If you want to save material feel free to just incorporate trees and mid mountain plate into the golf ball “moon” plate which will still look great.

Step4: Assembly of your Decoration

Please see video guide on how to fully assemble along with diagram of how this silhouette effect is achieved.
