>Steps
Cut the wood to size with a scroll saw, print out your design on a piece of paper, and outline it through the paper with a sharp pen to indent it onto the wood, then draw with a pencil on the actual wood with your design. Use the rotary tool to cut holes into each section large enough to fit your scrolls saw blade through, fit blade through on scroll saw and carefully cut out each section (by far the longest process, took me about 7 hours.) Then sand your wood, cut your acrylic to size, stain it all, and glue together.
That's a pretty simple overview of it, but it kinda covers it for the most part. There are probably a lot more efficient and accurate ways to do a lot of it, but it was my first project and I used tools available to me, and thats how I went about it.
