A scroll-cut plywood snowflake laid out with true six-fold symmetry — a paper-folding approach on the layout, then careful scroll-jigsaw work for the cutouts.

Overall cost: $. Lumber varies by region, species, and season, so we give a band rather than a figure.
Tools: Pencil, Speed Square. Materials: Plywood or MDF panel, 1/2" or 3/8", 24" x 24"
Mark the panel as if folding it into a paper snowflake: first the quarters, then divide each quarter into thirds. Every resulting line should be 30° apart from the next — use a speed square or protractor to check.
Tools: Pencil
Download and print the cutout pattern at 100% scale. Place it on the panel and trace, then flip and repeat around the full circle using your reference lines until the whole snowflake outline is marked.
Tools: Drill / Driver, Jigsaw
Clamp the panel securely to a sturdy table. Cut carefully along the traced lines with a jigsaw fitted with a scrolling blade. For any interior cutouts, drill a starting hole larger than the jigsaw blade first, since the blade can't plunge-cut from a solid surface.
Materials: Spray paint
Sand any rough edges smooth. Spray paint is recommended for the easiest, most even finish across the many small cut edges.
