This digital download features a tree stand file. these are SVG, AI, PDF, CDR and DXF Laser Cut Files for laser machines and CNC routers
design is sized for 6mm MDF tree to slot into with a 9mm thick MDF base but can be changed easily to suit the thickness you would like to cut in.

I have made instructional videos for how to link a name to these designs in a few different software, please go to on my You Tube page:

For this design, use the videos on outside edge name linking to a design.
And I also have a step by step guide to linking name below in this description.
Please note: these files do not include the Name text and name area is left blank for you to add your own names (I have included how to link names below). if you would like files sent with the name text included for easy change, or would like a name linked so is ready to cut, please just message me and I would be happy to send you the files)
(name needs to be linked to design before cutting on laser machine)
How to link names:
I have designed these name signs in coreldraw and use lightburn to cut. I have not used all the software available so if these options do not work for you then please message me as I am always happy to help and improve my designs to work for all.
For glow forge users, if you have an issue uploading my SVG files, please contact me as I have had one customer that needed a lower file size SVG to work and I can do on request.
I am always here to help with any questions or issues so please message me.
