To identify which pieces will be cut in walnut and which will be cut in basswood, you will need to move pieces to a new layer. Keep the middle piece on Layer 1. Keep the beak and eye on Layer 2. Move the remaining 2 pieces on to Layer 3.
Next, assign the processing type to each piece by clicking one piece at a time and adjusting the object setting to “CUT” for all pieces except for the beak and eye, which needs to be set to ENGRAVE.
Hide Layer 3 and switch the object setting for those hidden pieces as “ignore”.
Select the material type from the drop down menu as basswood. Adjust the number of passes to 1 instead of 3 which it will automatically adjust to.
Then click on the green PROCESS button at the bottom.
Load the basswood material into the cutting machine. Secure with the magnets on the sides.
Position the cardinal design on top of the material in the desired location. Keep in mind the direction of the wood grain.
Double check the placement. Turn on air assist.
Hit process.
Remove when cutting is complete.

Unhide Layer 3 and hide Layer 1 and Layer 2, also switching the object setting for that hidden piece as “ignore”.
