Summary

NB! This is a CNC project - the design requires the parts to be milled with 4mm sheets!

This Christmas it's farewell to those boring mass-produced elf doors. This time the Elf on the shelf has a proper mansion to move into!

For the dxf layouts I have chosen a different route then previusly. I have imported them into my cnc proggram (Estlcam) and created carve lines on all items. Then I have exported them as gcode and used g-code ripper to generate DXFs...happy to hear if anyone have a better approach, but it looks good to me. They should include the complete list of components needed to put it together. Secure sides/roof with hotglue.

There are some ornaments already present on the dxfs but these can easily be swapped with something else. Also carved with a 60degree tool around all edges of the fences and some details on the house/doors before cutting. Use a 2mm bit to carve - at least this is needed for the small parts.

The house has a mailbox attached to it in front that can be opened and closed so that messages can be sent to and from the elf.

If you want to fork and tweak the project yourself - you can find all the files in onshape http://www.diygarageprojects.com/2020/11/christmas-project-elf-on-the.html

Merry christmas everybody!
