2024 Fall Market Prep: DIY Magnetic Logo Sign | Vendor Booth Display | Small Business Studio Vlog

If you still have both the original sign file and the letters made a cardboard template for placement to fill the space. Make the 14in circle in XCS, line up your text as it should be laid out. Offset the text by .04. Move the original text off to the side. Minus front (I can’t remember what it’s called but is the last one) so it slices the offset out of that 14in round. Duplicate it so you have 2. Take any shape like a rectangle and cover the bottom half (M1 has small bed so need it to fit)and subtract, repeat on that other circle covering the top half with a shape and subtract. Now you have small stencil pieces just for the outer edge of the sign, use painters tape to hold in place and glue the letters down using the guide. I hope that made sense.

Thank you so much for this! It totally made sense and I may give this a try to add those letters around the logo! ❤️

@@TheHandmadeMom awesome, I have 2 D1 lasers and did beta testing for 2 of the last 4 XCS software updates, found all kind of ways to work around it, especially in that first year when I came from Cricut.
