I am making this with the help of the honeycomb and air assist. Start by pinning down the basswood with the material pins. Then open up the XCS software and load the provided design file. I auto measured and got 5mm and used Laser Flat. I used 100/5/1 as my cut settings. Move the design file to fit on your wood space and click Process.

The design is now cut through. I like to wipe the soot off the edges with a wet baby wipe. Removing the soot is important before painting, otherwise the soot may end up making your paint dirty.

Gather your paint material and lets start painting. I like to thin my acrylic paint with a couple drops of water. This allows me to paint 2 coats without it being too thick.

All done! The tree should fit in the slot stand nicely after painting. If it is still loose, you can add some glue to make it more steady. I hope you enjoyed making this Christmas tree with me.

I downloaded the pattern and then noticed it was for the m1. I have the d1 pro. Can I use it on my laser? I know my laser will cut it but will the pattern for an m1 be compatible?

Yes, you can cut it on your D1 laser. Just change the machine to yours and update the settings.

This is a fun project. I made it to give to a family member and they loved it. My question is, do you make it in Spanish to say "Feliz Navidad"?

Glad your family member loved it. I did not make it in Spanish, sorry.

Looks Amazing, thank you. I'm going to try to adapt the design to have a slight score between the star and the tree and the stump and the tree. This will help to stop the paint from bleeding (as I'll be using paint pens). Everyone is getting one of these instead of a Xmas card :-)

I used my 5w with riser, honeycomb, and air assist. I used your settings but made 2 passes. I used the 3mm ash wood that came with my kit and auto measured. Came out beautiful. I will paint tomorrow. Thank you.
