1. Find a wooden plank or desired wood surface
2. Sketch out your desired tree or holiday design on the wood surface Tip: For more difficult designs, use trace paper to trace and transfer a design onto the wood surface ( F I G . A )
3. Use the MakerX Angle Grinder to refine/ smooth the edges to achieve your desired look ( F I G . B )
4. Use the MakerX Wood and Metal Crafter to burn your design into the wood ( F I G . C)
5. Mark where you’d like to insert the lights into the wood surface
6. Use the MakerX Rotary Tool to drill holes where the lights will be inserted
Tip: Periodically check to see if the lights fit so that you don’t make the holes too big. Drill from the back to hide any drilling mistakes. ( F I G . D )
7. Use sandpaper just around the holes on the front to clean up the look Tip: Don’t sand where you’ve burned in your design to avoid damaging the burns.
8. Insert the lights from the back and enjoy!
