INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare and cut the wood

Sand the wood as smooth as possible. Make photocopies of the pattern pieces for the correct number of layers and pieces. Apply spray adhesive to the back of the photocopied pattern pieces and allow it to tack up, then apply the patterns to the. wood. Bore a small blade entry hole in the waste area of the rings for the Note Paper Holder, thread the blade through, make the interior cuts first, then saw around the perimeter. Repeat this procedure for each layer. When cutting, the Business Card Holder layers, saw .the inside first and continue in a counterclockwise direction, then cut the outside. Continue to cut until all pieces are finished.

Using the decorative bit of your choice, rout the base of the Business Card Holder. Hand sand the pieces as necessary. In particular, sand or chamfer the edges of the top pieces.
