General Information
I decided to design a holder for a product (TonieBox) that we brought for your 2yr old son.
I wanted to design something that would incorporate the TonieBox itself, a selection of the Figures (these contain the music or stories that play on the box), and the charging stand.

Laminating (Gluing) Material Together
Glue the 3 pieces of the MDF 12" x 12" x 1/4" together creating 3 layers to make up 3/4" think board.
-Layout two pieces of material beside each other and cover with wood glue.
Lay the 3 pieces of material face to face with one side with glue to a corresponding face that doesn't have glue.
Use clamps or some form of weights to press the material together and leave to dry. Do your best to keep all edges flush.
CNC Millling - Backside for Charger Station Cable
- Place the Material on the X-carve and mill the backside first, the slot for the Charger Station Cable
Estimated time: 3 minutes
CNC Milling - Topside
-Turn the Material over (With the milled slot on the left underside) and mill the frontside of the Project.
Estimated time: 42 minutes
Finishing
Once the milling is finished, remove from the X-Carve and remove the project from the rest of the material by cutting the tabs.
Sand the edges and remove sharp edges so it is a little rounded.
Finish with a clear lacquer from a spray can or a wax or oil of your choosing.
Will you please share a photo of the finished shelf? Thank you!

Shawn Calligan. This was a concept for a design, to go in the draw to win a cnc from Inventables at the time. I did t actually end up making and completing the project. So sorry, I dont have a photo of a finished product.
