Tip:
When engraving deeply into wood, it can be helpful to cut the job first and engrave the job afterwards.

Clean the two acrylic pieces with a damp cloth. The wood relief engraving can be cleaned best with some water and a tooth brush. Here you can find tips for correct cleaning.

Put the acrylic glue on the engraved ring of the base plate and position the TroGlass Metallic ring on it. Press down firmly and allow the glue to cure.
Put double-sided adhesive tape or dots where the wooden relief shall be positioned and fix it.

Take the wooden spacer and apply double-sided adhesive tape on both sides. Position it on the left and the right of the black base plate. Make sure to have a rectangular contact surface so that the trophy stands upright.

Finally, fix the lettering "winner" and the corresponding back on the spacers to complete this elegant trophy.
