The Finger Joints Kit lets you add laser cut finger joints to any project. In this video we use it to make a sign with a base that can stand on your desk. We use the Offset modifier with Connected Text to create our two layer sign. We see how to use the Finger Joints Kit to add tabs to the name, and design a base with slots.
