Here are the images of the PDF’s I plan to cut on Wednesday assuming the MDF I ordered comes in. The first four are my actual face sliced, while the last two are decorations to go around it. Blue is where it will cut, and red is engravings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update: I have cut the bedground and received the MDF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update 2: I cut and arranged my face. However, I am now debating whether it is worth trying to clean up the dark sides of the layers. My friend said it added depth and made the form easier to see. Any thoughts?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update 3: Disaster has struck! I started gluing but must have accidentally knocked a piece out of place when clamping and the center is raised. So next weekend, instead of doing this on a paper towel, I will use a flat piece of wood with the outline of the piece on it, so it’s easier to check it’s all aligned. I will also use glue that takes longer to set so that I have more working time. Additionally, I will use less of it because some glue was falling out the side and making it look blotchy. This was a good learning experience though as I now know how to glue more precisely for the Lantern. Also, I updated the colors of the project. After hearing numerous opinions, I have decided to keep the charred edges of the face since it makes the form of the face more distinct, and due to this I have also elected to use a lighter color stain for just the top piece as to keep it visually distinct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Questions:
1. What is the best way to remove the burn marks from the edges of the MDF once I cut it? Is it best to sand it or is there a more gentle method?
2. What kind of stain (if any) should I use for the backboard to make it look more official? I plan to use the makerspace plywood for reference.
3. Is there a recommended wood glue I should use the keep the pieces together?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
