In this month’s “In The Labs” at Christmas, Todd shows us how to make a Christmas mystery Mantel message inspired by a backlit trade show sign. With a message that appears and disappears with the light, this makes for a simple, fun and stylish way to help you decorate your home or create gifts for your Christmas-themed Etsy shop. This project is perfect for beginners to tackle, or for the more experienced users looking for fun ideas to keep those children or grandchildren busy with Christmas crafting. Why not make this project into a wintry window ‘shop open’ display, a fun Mantel piece decoration, personalized wedding gift, or even an ‘on air’ sign for the YouTuber in your life. Todd shows you how to design this single-sided acrylic sign in VCarve sourcing some great Christmassy SVG files to create a fun message. Using the new and improved SVG import functionality, Todd opens the files directly in VCarve adjusting artwork features to customize the message and make it his own. He uses the neat lithophane view to see how it will look when it's backlit, then uses the toolpath preview to adjust for cutting acrylic and adapt the frame to house LED lights, battery and cabling. Why not give your backlit sign an extra edge by creating a theme set with different Christmassy messages in different colored acrylics or woods as a finishing touch. See how easy it is to create individually styled hassle-free projects for your Christmas store or home décor. This free CNC project comes with the file(s) for you to download, along with a PDF document that highlights some of the key important steps to help you get through your project.
