Introduction
These Nativity ornaments are intended to be stack cut two layers at a time to make a two-sid-
ed ornament with veneer sandwiched in-between. When stack cutting, be sure that you have enough
support holding all layers together so that they don’t move while you are cutting.
Procedure
-Make photocopies of the original patterns and keep them for future reference. Patterns may
be reproduced for the purpose of making the project – not for resale purposes. Finished items that
are made by hand may be sold for profit, but not mechanically manufactured. Credit to the designer is
encouraged.
Cutting
-Start by cutting the perimeter of each ornament. Once you complete this cut for each orna-
ment, your layers will separate. You will need to remove the veneer layer and re-tape the front and
back layers together with a small piece of packaging tape on all four sides before moving on to the
next step.
-Once you have the veneer pieces removed and the fronts and backs re-taped together, use
the small bit in your drill press and drill the entry holes for the interior cuts.
-After drilling the entry holes, turn over the piece and sand the back of it so that it is perfectly
flat.
-Use the 2/0 reverse-tooth scroll saw blade and cut out the rest of the design.
-Once you are finished cutting, separate the pattern and all tape from the wood.
