  • Summary

    Anyone can cut out a shape, but sometimes it's more fun to create an image with a little more depth...literally! This project will bring you through the basics of creating your own layered scene. Using shapes from the xTool shapes library, vector drawing tool, and the combine tool, you'll be able to design your own unique scene! 
    
    This project was cut from 1/16 basswood on the P2, but could easily be adapted to thicker stock and a use on the D1, D1 pro, laserbox, or M1 machines! Have fun!
    
    An unedited video demonstrating the creation of the owl depicted in the accompanying photos can be viewed here, https://youtu.be/d91JGfygTLE. 
    (It's pretty basic, but you can use it to follow along and pause as needed.)
