here i use 6mm thick wood because it has better stability than 3 or 4mm wood


Create a text field with the HO HO
at the top of the text settings
is a function and below it is the value for spacing
here I have brought the two letters together with -1.5
Above another HO in a different font
and added 2 stars on the side from the XCS library
make sure that everything overlaps with each other
at the end select everything and click on unite

I used acrylic paints for painting
for the stars i mixed the gold with a structure acrylic color that has this dot in it
here you can paint it on both sides and also on the laser cut edges


finally i used an acrylic gloss paint
