When finished cutting remove the tape and the pattern. Takes awhile to remove the tape depending on how many tiny cuts there are. I then wrap 320 grit sandpaper around a block of wood and lightly sand the wood. There are several different ways, this just happens to be my way. Whichever works for you is the best way.

Heres one more you can try. If you make a photo copy of your pattern, and lay it face down on your wood, you can run a hot iron over it and it will transfer the ink onto your working surface. However... keep in mind you are transferring in reverse. if you have a picture or something where orientation is important, trace the back of the paper and then cop the back. you have now reversed the reverse loll. Good luck
