Build instructions

Apart from the workpiece you need nothing else.

Carving and finishing

  1. Clamp the workpiece flat on the spoilboard or secure it with double-sided tape, and set the origin as shown in the carving assistant.
  2. Carve the baubles and slots first, then the outlines.
  3. Free the parts at the holding tabs with a utility knife or fine saw and sand the tab remains flush.
  4. Lightly break the edges with sandpaper (grit 120, then 240) and remove burrs.

Assembly and final touches

  1. Slide the tree with the slot from the top over the tree with the slot from the bottom until both stand flush at the base.
  2. Paint it or decorate it with small ornaments if you like; without glue the tree can be stored flat.
